NEED HOTEL INFO ASAP! How much will a room cost? What are the diff prices for the rooms if associated w/ the festival? etc. . . Discount as always I hope?

Rooms are usual $79 if you want to be antisocial / want a room to yourself ;-]

Otherwise, I think it is like 350/(# of people we can cram into CIC suite).

I just called the Mayors Office of Special events. There will be discounted hotel rates for people attending the Holiday Sports Festival (New Year's Jam). Discounts are only available during Dec 26- 30.

$79/ single or double occupancy
$95/ triple
$115/ quad

Toll free # to the Hyatt McCormick is:
800- 233-1234
Don't forget to mention 'Holiday Sports Festival" to get the lower rates.

Guess who just got a refund back from school for a couple hundred bucks !!! Meeee...we'll see if I can save the goods till christmas to make a lil trip with the crew to Chitown. Brad seems pretty interested...my only thing is I was just watching a vid of last years Philly...and Ales and Felix was there, along with Jordan and Dave along with some other big bap names, quite the talent last year, ya know ?? But then again, nothing yet is even confirmed, that and you have a climbing wall...so I'm leaning towards Chitown baby !

I think I'm going to check what my schedule is for school and work, once I find out, I'm going to start making plans. It sounds like Brad and Bob are pretty interested already, so hopefully we can all make it.

We are taking over. Everyone who was going to chilly philly is required to come here now. We are so cool. The hotel deals are great. And guess who else is going? EVERYONE.

I would like people to post about previous years' New Year's Jams. Sam, Juan, Bijan, Greg Nelson, CIC, Jeremy, Daryl, Scalfer, Mike, Emily, Matt Kain, Midwest.

Sure lots of of these peeps are not currently on Modified, but just in case...

Senor Grommet · Post by **Senor Grommet** » 05 Nov 2005 16:10

Its the only tournay Id ever pay 1000 bucks to attend, except maybe worlds. Like I said, its the people that make the jam, not the level of competition/# of BAP competitors. Is David clavens gunna go tho? I sure would like to kick with him.

Now that i have the dates im gonna be putting in to get all 3 of those days off work. I dont want to miss a freaking second of this event.

Im down for staying with you guys in the hotel for the players party, I will call josh elmer today and see what his level of interest is, but shoot me an email about the hotel situation.

CANT WAIT

This is gonna be fucking awesome, Im gonna shred till my legs fall off.

And everyone should also expect zeke to throwdown the greatest 4 square event this world has ever seen. anything less will be a dissapointment.

Can we get a list of peeps planning on coming, First name that comes to mind that i havnt seen in a while is will rockey, The FTB trio is a footbag force to be reckoned with.

Awww, thanks Shawn. Well as far as I know, the entire FTB force will be there: Will Rockey, Reid Strellner, and myself. And hopefully a couple other guys that we have been training. And from what I've heard, the three of us have really been pushing the limits of our shred lately.

I also know that Phil Roper, that kid from Oak Lawn I've been kicking with at school is going to be there, so Shawn, you two can finally swap info.

Daaang, from what I hear EVERYone is gonna be throwing down at this event. It's gonna be EPIC!
