Hello Justin! Merry Christmas!

Details on specific venues and agenda are shared privately for security reasons. After all gatherings, a brief recap video is produced (available on YouTube). Some of the brands for '19 include Audemars Piguet, Breguet, Rolex to name a few.

Please feel free to contact myself anytime for any questions or comments.

Cheers!

I changed our plans. We are now arriving early Thursday and leaving on Monday morning. Basically a wash for the extra day with the difference in flight cost. Used Wynn travel for airfare and hotel and was actually a better deal than the black Friday deal they had. Saved a few hundred. They even beat Costco travel and better flight times.

Wife and I discussed the trip yesterday. Both very excited!!!

Does anyone here have any hotel tips for that weekend? For some reason the rates look a bit higher than usual. Is there a convention or some major event that weekend?

Right around Spring Break I'm thinking, the flights are much higher as well.

No major conventions, actually just reading convention news for that weekend specifically and there’s nothing. Just a few small ones. Most conventions in town are usually Monday - Thursday anyway. It’s just a normal raise the room rate by 25% weekend from all the warriors flying and driving in. Good news, a lot of hotels are dropping mandatory charges for parking now. You just have to spend I think 50.00 per day for food and beverage and get it validated I believe. 50 should cover a bottle of water and a beer 🍺
Good news ! Dr. Scott will be in the tower suites, a nice 2200 sq.ft. Suite loaded with wine, liquors and beer. Everyone is invited, huge seafood platters, imported cheese, truffle risotto, angus mini burgers too

Thx Doc !

EDIT: a case of 20 year old pappy was ordered plus all the 2009 Saint Emilion Bordeaux you can chug- you even add a shot of grey goose to it if you want, he won’t mind
