Here's hoping for a Jon/Casti vs Packer/Jesse AD Finals.

I also have a feeling that Casti and Simon Giguere will make some noise in OD.

Cheers to that Frank!

Examples:

3) Winner of package can choose to keep prize money instead, but not both. If winner chooses package, their prize $$ will return to the pot.
4) Anyone manipulating results for points will forfeit $$ and be banished to Bonzini table!

Little late to be letting us know Sean

It's too bad we aren't doing something in Ottawa. I realize there are only 5 of us going, but I felt the tight competition of the last several weeks of the points race made me better prepared for NY state.

We can do another points race on Friday nights. OFA can add $100 to this

I also think there's more than 5 going, i think Mark & Mario are making the drive down as well last I heard from them, and Julian was on the fence or something.

[garbaggio]

Really? That's good to hear.

I keep forgetting to bring this up.. but Jon tells me that that he is going down with Jesse and Packer in Packer's car. Any chance I could get in on this?

Also, does anyone want to share a hotel room?

Taha

[SilentSam]

I may be going as well... still not 100%. I'd be driving.

[PACKER]

I don't know if my car's the best option but if we don't take it then, shot gun DJ Krazy Kriz's Car!!

[PACKER]

Hotel is B B B BOOOOKED!!!
