US Nationals 2010 in Minneapolis

[matth]

Steve Port just announced it:

US Nationals will be held August 21 in Minneapolis in my Mom's basement -- I mean -- at the Minneapolis Convention Center where the Grand Prix was held last October. Which, apart from size disparities, isn't that much different.
Anyway, this kicks so much ass that it's going to be in the Midwest! I've never been to one, and even if none of us are invited, it should be a lot better experience than the one Travis and John had last year in KC. (Correct me if I'm wrong.) I'll show up in any case.

That's super bomb.

Gen Con, Nationals, and Karl's Bday in the same month. OOOH BOY. Betta start savin' up

Nats?

Anyone?

Anyhow, there's no good reason for me to go (lack of funds, mostly), but I could make the trip if I could meet some people I know there.

This quote pretty much sums up why I won't be going. That, plus the fact that the games I played during last year's trip made me want to quit playing, and I'd probably have to drive up there myself, since no one else around here wants to go.

I'd love to. How much would it cost for the hotel for a night and the entry and gas/food?

(if the 3 of us split the room, and travis and I came up seperately)
