So...who is planning on going to the convention?  I just made hotel reservations downtown for the wife and myself.  We wanted to have a party for DRTV friends, but we live too far away to expect any of you to come.  I lucked out and found a room for us on Saturday night, so if anyone wants to meet at a bar or restaurant Saturday after the show that would be outstanding.

As an fyi, I don't really know any places that are good in downtown Pgh.  Yes, I live 30 miles away, but I spend more time in NYC than Pittsburgh.  I do, however, have friends that can recommend some places.   ;D

BAC, trying to talk the wife into going.  We Live in Ravenna, Ohio...just East of Kent.  It's about a 2 hour drive so we probably will stay overnight.  Hope to see the 3 M's there.

Planning on going which means I need to start looking for a place to stay.

  Thanks to Big Sis and the TSA I have no reasonable way to get there and back in a timely manner. It will be the first one I missed in four years, my next one will be Houston.

We were able to get a room at the Cambria Suites by the Consol Energy Center.  It just opened and was the only downtown hotel that showed any availability.  I just Google-mapped it and it's a .7 mile walk from the convention center.

Remember, there are plenty of hotel/motel around the Youngstown area which isn't more than about an 1-1/2 hour drive.

Check with the AAA travel guide and you should find accommodations all along route 80...even the Cleveland area is only about 100 miles away..  If I go, I'll being staying with friends in Lorain, west of Cleveland.

There are plenty of hotels available outside the city, the ones downtown are pretty much booked.
