Like the Cube says, "I'm down for whateva."
Perhaps two cities, one in this hemisphere. And one to kick off the UK edition in Scotland (since most of the non-Americans seem to be Scottish or Irish or Northen Irish.)
We could network and use webcams and such to have them connected.

If we do the two hemisphere thing, we could send ambassadors. I would be torn as to which I would prefer to attend, but would voluntere to be the Western Hemisphere representative to our cousins overseas.

Man, I hope I can attend no matter where it is! My biased vote would be for having it in the town of Tequila, Jalisco, in Mexico. I say biased because I love that precious lifeblood of my ancestral homeland more than I can ever express to you all. Damn, sorry, drunk and rambling again. I'll try my hardest to make it no matter where it is. The dual-hemisphere thing is a good idea, providing it's financially viable for MDM?
That's a great idea. I liked the ambassador idea as well. This would be alot easier for our fellow drunkards across the pond.Frankennietzsche wrote:

As far as ideas for the location in this hemisphere I vote for:
1.) Milwaukee - "beer city", need I say more?
2.) Chicago
3.) New Orleans
4.) Sturgis (SD) or Daytona Beach (FL)- maybe we could coordinate the convention with the bike week.

I wouldn't want to go somewhere where its really hot and sunny.. Heat & sun make me crazy... I would be up For Vegas because I would be indoors.. I won't fly there.. Maybe me and Fdoosey could take a bus trip!! Or maybe we can rent a van and pick up anyone else that needs a ride on the way.. Or maybe rent our own bus.. The possibilities are endless..
me loves the voddie

Vegas would be great, and convenient/cheap for US drunkards. However, I agree, Prague would be fabulous.MassiveDrunk wrote:im saying vegas, but prague is a great fucking idea
Either that, or the park where Massive's dad sleeps.

Well, for convenience's sake, I'd go with NYC or Atlantic City (Vegas East). If we do this internationally, it IS more central.
But if this is limited to the US folks, why not Chicago? It's fairly central. to the country. Unless you want to be a stickler for "central", then Wichita or Omaha. :)
Money is super-tight for me, so I'd have to save up. But I could do Vegas too.

methfront: the man who wanted to steal a shopping cart of bowling balls and drop them from the back of a car down route 36 doesn't want to sow bitterness
fdoosey: No, he just wanted to have fun with a shopping cart of bowling balls.

Same here, that's why I suggested Milwaukee as my #1 choice. Compared to the other excellent locations that have been mentioned, this one is definetly the most inexpensive.fdoosey wrote: Money is super-tight for me, so I'd have to save up. But I could do Vegas too.
Regardless, I'll do my best to make it wherever it is held.
Chicago would be my 2nd choice and New Orleans my 3rd...but i still think vegas would be perfect for this type of event.fdoosey wrote:Well, for convenience's sake, I'd go with NYC or Atlantic City (Vegas East). If we do this internationally, it IS more central.

I've been to Milwaukee. Cheap drink, friendly crowds, blind drunk. I like it.Chelsea40ozBondage! wrote:I'd be into Chicago too or maybe even Milwaukee.

Fuck it! Let's go for Hong Kong, Bangkok or Ulan Bator. At least that way we are all equally inconvienced.
