They started a thread like this on another board I post at, figured I'd do it here too.
Post here if you're going. Might be cool to have a Bench meetup one day.
As of right now, I'm almost certainly going for the full week. I was going to roadtrip it with some friends (Texas to Ohio can be done in a day or two easily; my wife and I did it a year and a half ago), but it looks like they're out, so I'm just going to fly in, rent a car, and either try to split hotel with someone from here or the other board or stay with my dad. He lives about a half hour east of Cleveland, but to me an hour drive each way is better than paying full for a hotel.
It'll be the fourth Cleveland National I've been to. Did a single day in 1997, and had the VIP pass in 2001 and 2004. Planning on going Super VIP this time.
For anyone who doesn't know, I may live in Texas but I'm a Cleveland native. If you need advice on things to go and see aside from the IX Center, let me know and I'll hook you up. Restaurants are my area of expertise though I could name plenty of sports-related things as well. For autograph collectors, I'm planning on trying to 'graph at least one Indians game while I'm there too. If any of you want to go with, let me know.
Anyways, post here if you're going and I'll try to keep a running list at the bottom of the thread.
LIKELY GOING
