I'll be there, already bought air ticket today (Southwest has a 15% Ding fare sale this weekend for Aug, Sept, and OCT). Airfares are only going to get higher and higher as we go forward with $115/barrel oil. There will be more Chapter 11's this summer also with fewer choices for air travel.
I think Vegas rooms will get cheaper as the economy gets worse, some say it is already happening. With strip rooms @$240/night average something has to give.
The '99 trip was great time and a huge tailgate by NCC and Alumni group. I wonder if the still sell beer at the stadium?

I am treating it as a vacation for the year. It's going to be great. "Hold on i need to cash in my chips before we go tailgate". I can't wait to say that.

I'd like to try and make the drive. Its about 8 hours for me. I'll do what I did when I took my road trip to California last month, and stay at cheap hotels on the boarder.

I'm going Thursday-Sunday.
On a semi-related note, has anybody ever taken the Wanna Get Away tickets from Southwest? What's the story on that, by which I mean what's the catch that makes them cheaper? If I can get a cheap flight through them this weekend that doesn't screw me over I will, otherwise I'm getting a nonstop from IAH to McCarran through Continental. I'm fed up enough with Dallas that there's no way I'm going that route.

If anyone sees that the flights on Allegiant for Sept. are up, please let us know. I've been checking almost every day.

If someone is going to set up an event or something for the game, please let me know. It will be nice to finally meet some of the members of this forum.
