Best Western in the French Quarter is $129 per night corporate rate for the weekend of the 21st, May 2005. That's prior to negotiation for a double occupancy.
F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!
ETA, which is cheaper than the rate for the Century Plaza in LA, or the Renaissance in LA. But about 40 more than the Safari, IIRC.
Bet it could be had for $110, is what I'm saying. If that matters.
The full stay isn't 127x2 though, it's around 250. That's without discounts and deals.
I remember with pleasure going to the paleontology museum in Chicago, and to the Santa Monica Pier in L.A. It was fun to do touristy things with Buffistas. It seems to me strange to deliberately choose a city based on its unattractiveness to tourists; after all, many of us are tourists.
So Minneapolis, sure, but not Richmond, Indiana.
I like both Minneapolis and NO, but I'm withdrawing from pimping for or against a city. And also reminding people that we're still eleven months out, and there's no need to make or take anything personally. We're just trying to figure out which city to play in. None of it means anybody sucks.

But ... but ... you sure?

What Sean said. I like NO, but if I can make it this year, I'll be happy wherever Buffistas are.
There is one other consideration - and at this point, I'm not sure I should even speak up - but that's congeniality toward the Buffistas as a group.
Basically, if a group wants to go visit a local bar wearing leather and tiaras in the afternoon, are they going to get hassled?
So it seems to me that the more cosmopolitan the setting - not bigger, mind you, but more sophisticated - the more Buffistas have a chance to cut loose in character.
Does that make any sense at all?
But ... but ... you sure?
Only if you want them too?
