Great! I am technology challanged but I still have the official "GS at Worlds" slack account on my event cell phone. Maybe we call all meet up in the concourse at a specific time and place for a bit of a meet and greet.
I still have some lanyard GS credential pouches!

Well, that's eight of us at least. I dont blame people for not showing. This event is going to be far more expensive than San Jose.
Or a single occupency room on a 15 day cruise to and around Hawaii. Sorry....I have Hawaii on the brain. Lots of my favorites will be
gone after San Jose and I have never been to Hawaii, and I am not getting any younger...

Long time GSer, first time poster. I'm attending! It will be my first time at a big competition and I am so excited!

I just bought tickets on impulse since it was pretty cheap I'll be there from Friday PM to Sun PM. I really wanted to go to junior ladies but I can't make it in time and I don't want to take Thursday off hwell:

Does anyone know the bag policy in Sprint Center, they didn't specific on their site. I want to go straight from airport to the venue, but I'll have a backpack on me. In Boston, they didn't allow backpacks and they made people put it in storage somewhere/drop it off... :think:

I would check with the LOC and the arena, but I would be surprised if they let you bring in a backpack...but stranger things have happened. Maybe you can leave it at customer services....another option would be to ship a small box with estencials to your hotel in advance to lighten the load.

Yeah I was doubtful too I guess I can just look for a storage area near the venue.

 

[louisa05]

Will anyone else have a car?

Parking looks ghastly. So I was hoping if anyone else is driving, they might post if they find decent parking prior to Saturday night when we arrive!

 

[semosk8tfan]

I am in KC visiting family, they tell me daytime parking downtown during the week is awful. They suggest parking at City market and taking the streetcar.

Sounds like you have to make it to San Jose and then jump a flight to HI! One thing we all have in common is that none of us are getting any younger, God speed!

Ohhhh...no flights to Hawaii for me! I am a pilot and aircraft mechanic.....I dont trust the darned things! LOL!
Plus I go crazy after three hours on a commercial airliner.....The cruise ship from San Diego/LA/Vancouver is the ticket....15 days of food, self medication and hula girls....dont tell my wife!
