Is anyone else going? I just bought a $40.00 ticket. Six hours of drinking and eating. I have been told it will bee 60 beers, 30 Bourbons, BBQ, and Cigars. I didn't know about this until my brother in-law told me.

[Edited on August 5, 2008 at 10:31 PM. Reason : i may be wrong but i know they cater for the koka booth which is where this thing is]

yeah, it looks like the company that ran it in Charlotte, mooreamarketing, isnt running the one here. Go to the "event and promotions" section of their website:

8/7/2008 8:18:29 PM

i don't care what anyone says

unlimited beer and plenty of bourbon along with live music and cheap bbq... sounds like a good time to me

8/7/2008 8:21:52 PM

we are going to the VIP and i don't know if DD's can get in 2 hours early

if you call and find out that they can, i'm sure we could arrange something

[Edited on August 7, 2008 at 8:25 PM. Reason : oops... don't know where 20 minutes came from]

8/7/2008 8:23:32 PM

i can twiddle my thumbs for 20 minutes....


as long as one of you fuckers will answer the phone when i can get in

8/7/2008 8:24:58 PM

oops- i meant 2 hours... d'oh

vip get's in at 12

regular folks get in at 2

8/7/2008 8:26:02 PM

haha....k...


but i'm not a regular person




i could always drop y'all off then go shopping for 2 hours or something

8/7/2008 8:26:59 PM

so many people said they hated it

but i had a fucking blast

8/9/2008 6:12:21 PM

So the online rumor was wrong. I was unlimited bourbon. I'm just now starting to sober up. The Sierra Nevada was great!

8/9/2008 10:32:12 PM

It was ok.. nothing great.

It was really crowded, and a lot of vendors ran out of handouts very early. They were completely out of bbq by 4:30. I'm not sure I would go back again.

8/9/2008 10:43:44 PM

^I would have liked to see about 10, or 20 more beers on the list. It also would have been nice to have more food stands, so you didn't have to wait in line for 30 minutes to get a cheese burger.

8/9/2008 10:45:30 PM

Yes. I was under the impression there would be more than 2 bbq vendors there. I read at least 5 or something. And the portions they were dishing out were VERY small.
