NAIAS (Detroit) 2012 meet, anyone?

[Deep Gloss Auto Salon]

I`m thinking I will make the toothbrush king pick up at cobo. We can drive to the ren cen where I can park for free then take the people mover to Greek town.... Plenty of options there....



Thoughts?

[David Fermani]

It might just be better to post the details here. I remember that was 1/2 the challenge the last time we all tried meeting up. This way, there`s no breakdown in the communication. And, anyone else that might stagger in on this thread and wants to partake can view it too.

[C. Charles Hahn]

Sounds like some good ideas here; I`ll call my uncle tomorrow to see what his thoughts on all of this are and what he`s up for. Finding something for lunch outside of COBO would probably work better for me anyway since I am on a gluten free/lactose free/etc. restricted diet. Not to mention the show is probably going to be absolutely packed and it would be good to get a break from the crowd.



I will let you guys know as soon as I figure out what will work best on my end.



In the meantime I`ll just tease y`all with this:

Nice picture Charlie



Hope you and your uncle are able to do lunch with us!

Charlie - my wife and 2 kids are gluten/dairy free (ciliac). As soon as I told her about your allergies she started searching for acceptable places to eat Downtown and actually called this place:



Hockeytown Cafe`



They have GF/DF menu and from what I`ve heard is an awsome place! Something to consider.

Food there is Good....



If Charlie is able to go with us here`s my suggestion:

- Marc and I meet you guys in front of Cobo

- Some of you hop in Marcs ride, some hop in my ride

- Go to Hockeytown cafe

- Grub

- Chat

- Drop you guys back off at Cobo



All we need to know is:

- Charlie are you and your uncle in?

- What time we want to meet in front of Cobo.

[C. Charles Hahn]

OK guys, game on! We`re in.



Now, the remaining question is what time we want to meet; 12:00? 12:30? 1:00? Any time around lunch is fine by me.





BTW, if any of you haven`t bought tickets my mom told me she got some free passes through work that we can use for Sunday -- David, did you already find one somewhere else?



Jason/Marc, I`ll PM you guys my cell # as well just in case any plans change.

Talk about a crazy coincidence.... tell your wife I said thank you very much for checking into that; I really appreciate it more than you know!

Maybe you`ll run into Doug or Bob McKenzie!

How does 12:30 meet up sound?

[C. Charles Hahn]

How does 12:30 meet up sound?

Sounds good to me! :





Which entrance/exit do we want to meet up at?

[David Fermani]

[David Fermani]

Perfect! 12:30 is perfect for me too. Probably just meet on the one side entrance of the front of Cobo. You might even be able to pull right up front too. We can play that by ear at that time.



Charlie - I`d love to take you up on the ticket offer!! Did you speak to your uncle about me tagging along?

That`s what I was thinking... We should be able to pull up into the loading zone of Cobo right up in front. David/Charlie: I`m gonna text you guys my number so we are all able to contact each other - Marc and I already have eachothers #`s

[mikemurphy234]

Afternoon guys. I`ve meet a few of the pros that are out state, but I haven`t had the opportunity to meet anyone in Michigan. I was planning to go to the show Sunday anyways so do you think you have room for one more?



Thanks,



Mike
