I really don't know of any cheap hotels nearby. I'd be surprised to find one. This is downtown Toronto.

That's why a hostel is the best bet. Plus, you'll get your own bed. If 6-10 people split a hotel room, you're sleeping on the floor, and not with space or anything. Everytime I've been to a hotel room downtown, it was TIIIINNNYYY.

And it's a risk too-- if the hotel finds out you're trying to scam them, you might get kicked out.

$30 a night is pretty cheap. The UQAM is $45.

Nice James!


So, I'm designing an event t-shirt and I want to show you what I came up with so far. Would you wear it? It's admittedly quite gross, but is it too gross? Some members of FAT think it indeed goes too far. They're probably right, but I still think bloody lavers and severed toes is badass! Please speak up quickly if you have an opinion. I'll need to get a design off to the printers in the next few days.

Hey, if chopping off shredders' toes and preserving them in a fine, sweet jam is wrong - I don't want to be right!

I like the shirt. Mike you should consider making shirts for threadless. I know you would get a few designs accepted and it one means 2 g's a design for you.

I would wear that shirt all day and all night.

But maybe don't go with a green shirt, unless it's like.. FAT's thing to only do green shirts. I think it just winds up having a similar feel to my hackrifice and FAT shirts, even with the totally gross/amazing logo.

But I want that logo so bad, all over me! :D

I like the green you've got there. Makes the blood stains really stand out... Maybe a blueish lightish grey... but I'd still prefer the green. Sry Tom :P

but it's the logo that makes the shirt, so I'd buy it nommatter what.

That is up there as one of the best footbag shirts ever. I as well would sport it every day. FOREVER. Green is good. makes it extra gross. Have you tried black, with the outlines of the shoes and feet being green? That might also look cool.

The final colour will be 'avocado'. A mustard yellowish greenish colour. Hope you guys like 'em 'cause I made a whole bunch! They'll go for $20 each and I should have girls' styles as well. Please come to our Jam. Bring money.

Everyone pitch in and we can bring Grigges to Toronto. Itll only be like 20 each. Every tournament should have someone that the bring from out of town through the generosity of others, and in every situation that someone should be Grigges!

This is going to be awesome!

(mike: do you still have room for 3(me, my nose, rishell)??????!!)

WILL!!! COME!!! We'll figure something out, don't worry. Bring your brother. :P

The crash spots are pretty limited, but if you're too broke to come otherwise, let us know and we'll figure it out.
