I will be there, I am off work on vacation.  Only suck thing is I waited to long to get a room at the host hotel.

I am only about 25 miles away, if that.

Who else is coming?  I have no idea if it will come down to it, no idea if he will choose to run if it does, but if Adam ends up vying for the 76th seat we need to get a group ready to to BALLS OUT to make that happen!

And @Supermoose may come into this thread and shut it right down too?

But fortune favors the prepared mind.

I want to, but don't know if it'll pan out. We had a lot of fun last year.

I'm still kind of pissed at the NRA right now, though.
Up in the air for us right now.

Do life members get in free?  Seems like the only benefit I get from my life membership is phone calls and mailings.

I'm planning on being there for probably Friday and Saturday.

Haven't been in several years, but always enjoyed it.

They have a number you can call for that.  It is not hard and it works.  It does seem you need to call it every 2-3 years as the mailings start pick up again after a while.  But it is not hard at all to get that stopped.

There are nice cheaper hotels than the host hotel in the area.  The only reason I tried to get a room was just to stay at the host hotel.  It was expensive.  PLENTY OF LODGING IN THE AREA.

Holler if you want any guidance to the area.

The NRA Annual Meetings and Exhibits is FREE to all NRA members in good standing and their families (spouse and children under 18 years old). At this time, pre-registration has not yet begun, but check back soon! Registration also takes place on-site at the event.

Also,
Kind of weird they don't have the Saturday concert entertainer named yet.

I may cheap out and camp somewhere, but my cheapness is pitted against my desire not to have to fuck with parking.

I knew you were a gamer.  Hoping we can get a huge crew, that is if it becomes necessary.  Hoping and praying it isn't even a point of contention.

I may not be able to make it. I just started a new job. I have worked a deal for some unpaid time off but am not sure how much I can take. I am still a viable choice and willing to do another drive to get on the ballot.

Yeah. That's half the reason I'm planning to be there, so that I am available to help Adam however needed.

I'll even change out of my typical basement dweller attire and act like I know how to interact with normal folks

We're good for strip clubs. Nothing more fun then the wife having a dollar in her shirt and stripper motorboating her for it!

Yes.

But honestly since Shot just ended 2 hours ago I’m not looking forward to it.

Talk to me again in March or April.

Don't know what NRAAM is, so I guess I'm not going. I know that NASCAR is in north Ft. Worth, so, it's obviously not related to that.

Join the NRA, and you can learn the secrets to life.

If you think the NRA is the big evil, I am not really interested in hearing about it.

It requires just a little to keep up with whats going on.  But the Cliffs notes are.....some of us are willing to work to change the NRA from the inside.  We aren't happy with the NRA exactly as it is, but we haven't decided to become quitters and take our toys to the house.

You are welcome to join non quitter groups and help fix it if you want.

Voting ADAM KRAUT and TIM KNIGHT, and only them, are a good start in this direction.

***But as always IF YOU HAVE A VOTE, it belongs to you, use how you see fit.  So just curious do you have a vote?

I'm going this year, also went last year to see the Trump.  I'm also looking for lodging options, preferably under $100 a night and with close proximity to the DART.

Working on my to do list for Dallas, options so far is

Bush Presidential Library
JFK Museum and the grassy knoll
Perot museum
Aquarium.  
Looking for an indoor/outdoor range to visit.
Shooting tannerite
Video game museum.

$100 a night in the immediate area might be tight.  But I think it can be had with varying degrees of comfort.

Straight down 75 for me. So I'll be there.

Back in the early days of Arf, ERICTHEHUN would set up a lunch get together during gunshows at a local eatery.

We should get the ARFCOM NRA MEMBERS together and meet for lunch on Saturday.

Went to preregister, would not take my EarthLink.net email, said it was invalid.

That crap needs fixed.

And just upgraded to endowment level.

I'm going.   I'm out in Garland near Bass Pro. May DART, but parking is pretty easy.  Trying to get the TX HTF crew together for beers,  but there is no reason we can't host visitors.
