Need 4 people to commit to $417 each and they can go with me to the King event in Florida and get all the VIP privilages, including a meet and greet with King.
Trying to figure out where it is in relation to the nearest major airport.
Sarasota, Fl airport is ~ 10 miles away.
RF - any chance for signing ?
I doubt King is going to sign anything at the VIP reception. At the Mason event, that was very clear and steadfast. Everyone did have a chance for a photo and a word or three.
RF - You went to the VIP event at the RBR show, right? Do you think it will be like that? I'm extremely interested, and could probably make it work. Just trying to figure out what's more important... A 2 minute conversation and a photo with him, or the chance at a signed book during a potential Revival tour.
I know you asked RF, but my opinion is.
People were very disappointed with $150 Hartford Conn Meet and Greet. He was hidden behind a wall. 1 photo opportunity and very rushed. At least let him hang out in the open!
The excitement of meeting him the first time at George Mason was well worth $100! Not $416.
$1000 at Toronto was ridiculous! Even the organizers talked people out of paying that price. And we still got 8 books signed with out the meet and greet.
Save your money, wait for the revival book tour, have the 2nd person with you stand in line a few spaces back, step around the table and get your picture taken. It has been done 100 times.
Unless you can easily afford $416 then by all means go for it! and take me too!! someone take me please!!! that is just not in my budget.
The fun is meeting others.
If I could get 4 members to buy a ticket from me at $417, I'd buy the $2.5K VIP sponsorship. Payment would have to be prompt.
Here's how it would work: Four people PP $417 as a gift to the PP address I provide. I'll then buy a $2.5K sponsorship. If 1,2, or 3 buy a ticket, but we can't get a 4th within 30 days, I'll give a 100% refund to all who paid. I currently have 1 person, just need 3 more.
PM me immediately for info.
I would love to go but the round trip airfare from the west-coast + ticket puts me close to a grand.The fun is meeting others.

But Mr. Flagg is correct.. hang'n out with fellow SK geekers is a ton of fun.

One left. First person to contact and actually pay gets it.
I checked out lodging, and the 2 closest hotels are a Hampton and a Marriot. They are equidistant to the venue (~1.7K feet). Currently the Marriot is ~ $50 per night cheaper counting tax.
EXPLORER actually drove to the area today, and had these observations:
"Looks Good.... Two nice looking hotels are within walking distance of Performing Arts Center: Courtyard by Marriott and Hampton Inn and Suites. The PAC is right in middle of these two hotels with Courtyard .3 mile northeast and Hampton .3 miles west. You can see the Performing Arts Center looking down 3rd Ave from Hampton. . It is about a 5-6 minute walk from either hotel One block west of Hampton Inn is "Old Main St" a street with various restaurants & Pubs. We saw at least 3 Irish pubs. Many of these places had sidewalk dining. Many had a wide range of beers on tap including some local brews. We picked one (OBricks) not full of smoke had a super lunch. They had some great happy hour specials !/2 price wines & $3 Capt Morgan all day.
I think it will be easy to find plenty to do and enjoy. All within walking distance there is a waterfront with other restaurants, a history museum, an aqauirium and the library. Right across the river is Palmetto another town with some waterfront shops and restaurants overlooking Bradenton.."
