When is the Fig going to have its get together. I know I had to switch hotels, but I would love to meet all my Figgie buddies!!! Thanks!!!


There is nothing formally organized in the works. I think folks are waiting until the schedule is final. Plus, with the Fig bar and pool area's great reputation, I assume folks will simply hang out there post-con. I could be wrong, but that is what I plan on doing. tongue

Now that is one heck of a unique hotel. I'm even more excited about staying there after seeing that video.

Thanks for posting it, Lufta.

Yes, the place looks pretty unique! I think it is great setting for Star Wars fans - sort of reminds me of a movie set. Can't wait to go!

Wow! Just Wow! I am so glad that I was patient and was willing to put up with all the BS. If that place hasn't hasn't been used in a movie yet, it needs to be.

Glad you are all liking the video I found!

DarthBreezy - how have you been? Too bad Hayden is not showing up, huh? I still remember you sharing your GQ article of him with us at TGIF's in Indy.

Hope to see you at the Fig! Instead of ice cream this time, I was thinking Mint Julep. I guess the Fig is famous for them.

Thanks Lufta Shif for that video.

I like the music from "A View To A Kill" playing while the camera captures the hotel's atomosphere.

The hotel almost does look like a hotel from a James Bond movie.



Also I may require some assistance from someone on Wednesday.

If I am unable to get my head shaved before I arrive I am bringing hair clippers and if anyone has some experience with them I would appreciate some help with that. happy

Oh yeah I need a little left because I am sport'n a mohawk for the con.

Either post or PM me if you are available and up for the task.

Thanks,
Chris

You can't shave your own head? Expecially with clippers? I shave mine once a week with professional "balding clippers" (although they could use a need set of blades at this point since I have had them over 5 years). As long as you have a bathroom mirror and a small hand mirror it's not hard at all. If if you are trying to go for a 'hawk.
