2018 Board Meeting - A Revival of Excellence
« on: November 24, 2017, 12:19:17 PM »
I'm gonna put it out there. All this talk about Nash Vegas on the OSU/M thread got me thinking. Uh oh.. you said?

Nope.

I'm proposing a revival of one of our finest traditions - a board meeting. In Nash Vegas!!

Vandy is at home on Saturday, November 17, 2018. Not that it matters, but it's there and they are playing Ole Miss. Not that it matters. It is IMPOSSIBLE to not have fun in that City.

Other ideas would be welcome (and let's not be selfish about wanting everyone to come see your own team).

Have at it.

Bold.  I would imagine we could recruit some SEC folks, maybe.   Most of the schedules should be out now.

Every game will be on TV that day in Nash Vegas.

Badgers play at Purdue. OSU plays at Maryland. I think Minny is at home but I can't remember who against (not a "big" game).

I think we should try to make this work, in all honesty. It's a good time and we would have an awesome host for the Friday night festivities with MH. There are lots of hotels near his place too, and it's a short drive downtown for the game day and plenty of bars to watch the other games in.

I'm in for a meeting as long as I don't have any prior obligations for the weekend selected and we decide with enough time to secure travel arrangements. 

I know better than to make suggestions, as it's a waste of time on my end, lol.

Just put something out there. My only thing with the locations is the easier a place is to get to, the better.

Nashville is easy for many here, as is Indy.

Turns out I just confirmed a cruise this morning, from Barcelona to Miami. We won't be around for that Nashville weekend I proposed as a result. Heh... If y'all pick that date, we'll just have to skype or something.

The last meeting of the minds in Indy was pretty damn good!

Dang, how long is that cruise?  I doubt you will be able to skype while sailing, but maybe technology has come a bit further than the last cruise I was on.  
I'd just take a week in Barcelona, I absolutely love that city.

The cruise is 14 days - Barcelona, Gibraltar, Madeira, Bermuda and Miami. Lots of sea days, which I enjoy. We'll start out our 3 week trek in Amsterdam and work our way to Barcelona for a few days there. I love it too. 

I wonder if it will be in a separate country by then..

That sounds like an amazing trip, badgerfan.  Just surprised you chose to do it during football season.   ;)

I'm good with Catalonia becoming it's own country, it's an interesting time over there for sure.  I do remember the locals in Barcelona being upset with their head officials way back when I was studying there in 2003, and so I believe this has been a long time coming.
