Hotels in Charlotte

[fightingquaker13]

I have been trying to get a hotel/airfare package for the NRA annual meeting. It seems all the close hotels are booked, unless you want to pay in excess of 100 bucks a night. My needs are simple, 2 beds 5days and 4 nights. As close to the convention center as possible, does Charlotte have good transportation, buses, trollies etc... Any 1st hand knowledge from any locals would be appreciated.

Hope to see you there 

Try Monroe. Its a bed room community/suburb about 30 minutes South. Its a bit of a drive, but within comuting distance. They have a very nice Hampton Inn that looks like it was decorted by Martha Stewart on work release, complete with fridge, flat screen, wifi and a free breakfast bar including a waffle station. Rooms go for about $90 a night and it shouldn't be crowded.

University Research Park is right across the street from UNCC, (graduated from there), also right down the street from the Nascar Hall Of Fame, Hwy 29/49, and Harris Blvd, head south 20 minutes turns into Tryon St. to the Convention Center....

Marshal'ette, can I please bring that midget country band over? They were great...Either that or the guy who throws knives, and sings Elvis?

Party Time,.....Party Time,......Party Time,....

And what says party more than a midget country band and a knife throwing Elvis impersonator? Seriously TW, I dated a girl who thought along those same lines. She was the reason for my one and only experience of being arrested, and damned near got me killed while riding bitch on her bike doing 130 on the Tamiami trail with her topless and me shitfaced and putting my hands in naughty places, not for recreational purposes, but just because I didn't want to fall off the damn bike. To quote Junior Brown "you're wanted by the po-lice and my wife thinks you're dead'. Been there, done that, and while I admire your spirit, I ain't partying with you sir, I am officially too damn old.  
FQ13 Who strongly reccomends the the song in the attachment. Junior Brown Rules. Pure Tx. truth and he won't be partying with you either. Instead we will sip Shiners and listen to the guit-steel.

Guess I will be there on Friday as well. Got a few other things to do in NC over that weekend so I will be staying in Albemarle and just drive in for the day.
