MANGOLASSI World/Con/give me a name idea please
-
$880 - to Buffalo
$680 - to TorontoSigh....

Flights for people are always going to be an issue. For me to get to Austin from Rochester is about $650 per person (depending on time of year).

MassiCON
You need a mascot like the T-Rex. Manny the Mango
-
im' pretty sure a dancing mango is in order.
-
I'd say we just do it out on the farm, but it is a dry town.
-
Des Moines is cheap, centrally located, good booze laws (non restrictive), and the people are great....

Wow, I had no idea that was even a thing

I actually have a camp ground we are going to take a look at. Cabins, conference space, internet and a dining area with a bar. We will see what I come up with . Lots of options but just have to figure it all out.

Does it involve Beavers?

Make sure it has AC. I just did a conference in the Adirondacks and it was nearly awesome but kinda sucked when you included the lack of AC and alcohol.

Does it involve ZOM-Beavers????
-
Oh AC is a must! I am not doing a conference without it! Alcohol is a given.

"To sum up, if you like to laugh, you are doing yourself a disservice by not watching Zombeavers. It's the quintessential horror-spoof stoner-comedy that you can watch with friends and have a blast. As far as creature satires go, Zombeavers puts Sharknado and Piranha 3D to shame.
...quite possibly the most ridiculous sentence in the history of language, which is only a testament to Zombeavers' utter greatness."
Well I know what I'm watching tonight

Actually I check in Florida and a few other places they all have the same rule. If they have a liquor license for that venue it has to be someone on their payroll doing things. Conference centers are also pretty uptight about just about everything.
Anywhere but Florida. Seriously, that place is effed up to the max. And if you're anywhere near water, big $$$$$$$$$$$.
Wow.. I found it to be the exact opposite. I love Florida - Orlando.... I found reasonable rooms with skywalk to the main convention center ($120/night), or crappy cheap ones in Kissimmee ($40/night). Food runs the gambit.
-
A conference room/center that we controlled for 48 straight hours (or more like 60) would be awesome. Assuming they allowed us to BYOD that could be a ton of fun!
