Green Eyed Monster Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Booked With Wife, who has never been to anything like a gaming/fantasy/sf/painters get together even though she has attended many, many conventions as a delegate/officer/guest for our Fraternal Order.

Green Eyed Monster Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 WOOT - WOOT ! Booked, for both me and my wife. Wife has attended many conventions over the years as a delegate/officer/guest for our Fraternal Order. She has never, ever, attended anything like what Reapercon will be. Stand by for Culture Shock in 233 days. We are scheduled for Wed arrival and Tuesday morning departure. GEM She has multiple friends who live not-too-far from Denton so she can always run-away if it gets to be too overwhelming. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SamuraiJack Posted January 10, 2018 Members Share Posted January 10, 2018 Enterprise looks like it has a $12.99 per day weekend rate, but the locations near the convention center may not be open on the holiday.. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't you want to pick up and return at the airport location anyway? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SamuraiJack Posted January 10, 2018 Members Share Posted January 10, 2018 Airport doesnt have the special weekend rates.. you'd pay the standard $40+ a day, plus I'd need to rent it Weds-Monday.. I had our car Fri-Sunday last year and it cost me $30... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dilvish the Deliverer Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 15 minutes ago, Green Eyed Monster said: I think that Reaper Brian is off to a good start if he is one of the people involved in getting this phenomenal rate. Is this going to be the Headquarters Hotel / Venue for multiple years or is this a one shot deal? Disappointed about no Reaper Sponsored Meals, but from experience I know what an additional load this puts on the Host Committee for any event. I'm sure that the Forumites will be able to make suitable arrangements for group meals. Looking forward to actually meeting as many forumites in person as possible. 233 days to Denton! GEM Bryan is no longer ReaperBryan, so I don't believe he had anything to do with the rate/hotel. He is now Secret WeaponBryan (or WeaponB). 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Melons Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 So I've been scouting about using Google maps and I've found a few food options near the hotel. There is an In-N-Out, McDonalds, Whataburger, Chipotle, Panera, Chili's, Cracker Barrell, Raising Canes, Chik-fil-a, Starbucks are all just on W University Dr. The Rudy's BBQ is actually about 5+ miles "down the road" and those without a vehicle may have to use a Lyft/Uber. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is only one, and it's called Queenies Steakhouse. It's about 2.6 miles from the hotel. Interesting menu and it looks to be on par if not more expensive than Saltgrass. Not sure if it is better quality though.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
