I'm definitely attending the Canadian Joe Convention this year. Aside from finding the toy on my most wanted list, I also look forward to catching up with some board members and always meeting new ones like NeoDragonKnight that I met last year in the lineup, and Grunt4MPV that I met 3 Conventions ago the same way. Per instance, I'm already talking of grabbing a beer with Pdaat & Dodge822.
So does anyone have plans to hang out after the Con, official or not official? If there is an official dinner/gathering of the kind, is it usually something that is discussed on location for those interested? What did you guys do after the Con the other years?
Let us know here.
-
I'm in for a beer or two ;D
-
I like beer. If I'm going solo, I'm in. If I'm carpooling, I'm at the mercy of the democracy.
-
mmm, i like beer, lol, i think it will be a long day of gi joe shopping, and other gijoe festivitys, how about dinner with beer? if we all have any money left that is!
-
You know, there is an option to have a dinner at the same Hotel in another section.
I can look into it if you guys like? After the con of course.

Since some of us will drive during night, and will be in line until the morning... not sure how I will be after the con... also, drinking and driving is never a good idea. Can it be at lunch time instead? A special lunch time for board members in a different section... or just a table at the hotel.

remember some board members will have tables at the con so after the con would be best for mat at least
-
Dinner will be great too!
-
Lunch or dinner, i'm in. That will be a great to takes a beer with Gijoe colletors.
-
I'm going to have to say "Diner". A dinner without Condor would be a dinner without Condor :(.

Night, or nothing. I'll inquire tomorrow - there will be a cost, obviously. No hotel feeds people for free. ;-)
Also, Martin - get a hotel room. It's only $100.00, and you can split it with 2 others - 2 beds, 1 floor. Simple.
-
Well, I called... Not cost effective guys. We would need to rent out another room/hall first, then there's an additional charge per plate of food.
Maybe next year.
-
Do they have a resturant that we can reserve a table for 20 or so? that should work well enough.
-
You know, I totally forgot that the hotel sent me a "Local Restaurants" map. ;-)
Here it is: http://www.canadianjoecon.com/Eats.pdf (http://www.canadianjoecon.com/Eats.pdf)

I see there's a tim horton's nearby. This Floridian wants to try those out! Not that I'm suggesting everybody meet there, just that I, well, want to try that place out! :)
-
i cast my vote on montanas lol.
that must be a old map, as it doesnt show the Keg, which is right in the same area as caseys, at 927 dixon rd.

I think I gained 10 pounds in one weekend at last year's con just eating timbits :P
-
The Keg may of been left out because it's in a competing hotel. That would be my thought.
-
Which ever restaurant that will reserve a section for 10 to 20 guys is fine with me.
-
Out of all those Tony Roma's gets my vote.

just asked my aunt that works their, keg isn't attached or part of any hotel, and is pretty much right beside the caseys.

But it may have an exclusive agreement with a specific hotel. That's what I mean.
Either way, just because something isn't on the map, doesn't mean it's not there and that you can't go to it. Surely there's a reason it was left off.
Someone pointed out to me that the Strip Club which is about 5 minutes away was also left off.
So, there you go.
-
I'd be IN for dinner outside the hotel, it just seems more simple.
-
Not to be a pain but we should ask them if they can do separate bills for everyone? Not everyone drinks or will be hungry.
-
There is also a Tucker's Marketplace just down the street from the hotel
-
Im down with dinner with my fellow boardies
-
Count me in..
-
im am up for it and i have a few buds coming so it would be cool as we are not leaving till sunday.
-

-
Already book my room. I was planning to stay three nights but when i called the hotel, the girl told me that no rooms was available on thursday and sunday night. I was only able to get two nights. :(
-
