Duke Socializing

[Jason Svoboda]

I'll be flying in Thursday night and out on Saturday afternoon provided the FAA doesn't declare my flight as unnecessary.

Who all is planning on going to the Duke game? I'm hearing that there is a tentative get together at the team hotel but not much outside of that.

What is the team hotel do you know by chance? Wife and I are coming in Friday AM

 

[Huff77]

I'll be rolling in around 7pm on Thursday.

I’ll be cutting it close on the one non stop out of Indy that day that lands at 4:30pm at RDU. Up for any postgame party. Staying near the airport and flying out on the Indy non stop Saturday 11am-ish.

I don't but @SycamoreStateofMind should.

Hilton Durham.

Bring your clubs. Got an opening for a 4th on Friday Duke Golf Course. You probably won’t be in town in time if coming in Friday just saw that.

I will see you on Friday!

With all of the FAA nonsense, I changed my flight and am now in at 4pm on Thursday. If anyone wants to get together Thursday night, I'm game.

Absolutely. Get at me… Need to find a good little sports bar or something.

I expect to arrive around 7pm...let me know the plan and I'll do my best to make it.

Same same… the only respectable answer.

If you have not seen CIS, you will be surprised. Football stadium right next door. Beautiful campus.

My son who interned in the Duke Athletic Office recommends Tobacco road Sports Cafe for sport atmosphere before or after and the Q Shack for BBQ.

Sounds like you guys are going to spend a lot of money. Are you hoping for a moment in history equal to the Red Sea parting, the walls of Jericho falling? The David vs Goliath analogy is overused.

 

[sycamore_21]

They are going to come up with a new analogy after we win this game

Not really. The non-stop from Indy and back was only like $300 round trip. Upgraded to first class for $40 bucks or 4000 Delta miles each way. GA ticket to sit with the Cameron Crazies was only $70. Tickets on stubhub are around $100 for a reserved seat. Hotels are $100-200. I used points so free for me.

Not a lot of money at all to go to one of the most storied sports venues in America and watch my alma mater.

+ $140 round of golf at Robert Trent Jones designed Duke University Golf Club.
