Tentative show information (subject to change): Day 1: Saturday, May 2nd; 2PM-8PM; Doors open at 1PM Day 2: Sunday, May 3rd; 2PM-8PM; Doors open at 1PM Name: Attending shows: Flying in to: Date and Time: Flying Home to: Date and Time: Ability to rent and drive a car: Knowledge of the Chicago area: Best way to contact (E-Mail, or Private Message): Other Information: The economy is tough right now. So let's help each other out as much as possible. Offer rides. Form groups to split the cost of rental cars and hotel rooms. Point out money-saving travel deals. Recommend other things to do while in town. When searching for hotels, if you're not paticularly choosey, you should consider a service such as Priceline.com, where you can pick select areas to search, and name your own price, leading to a significantly low price, or an improvment in hotel quality. While sharing rides are encouraged, there is public transportation available: Chicago Transit Authority American Taxi Metra Rail Other events in town: Thursday April 30 Chicago Cubs vs. Florida Marlins, Wrigley Field, 7:05 PM Friday May 1 Chicago Cubs vs. Florida Marlins, Wrigley Field, 1:20 PM AAW: Professional Wrestling Redefined, Eagle's Club, ~7:30 PM « Last Edit: Feb 22, 2009, 11:46pm by G-Reg » Link to Post - Back to Top   Logged Please visit my wrestling photography gallery.

Defintely keep that in mind when booking hotels. Link to Post - Back to Top   Logged Please visit my wrestling photography gallery.

It is, but O'Hare is a much bigger airport, and in many cases, could be the only way to fly into town at the day and time a person wants.
