Gonna try and make it down. Seems to me there was a LOT of booze flowing at the Mesa location...?...at least in the big tents...or maybe I'm mixing it up with Flagstaff.

I loved my drinkin' but I sure miss the brain cells now....

Anyhow...figure the gas down and back will only be about $90....

Boy, many years ago it used to be not too far away from Hance Park up at Central High School.

Alcoholic beverages weren't allowed at MCC, Ron, you were obviously thinking of Flagstaff.

As for parking, check out this link to Side 2 of the brochure for the Phoenix Games.

Basically, they've reserved 3 multi-story parking garages at the SW corner of Thomas & Central were you can park for free & then catch a shuttle down to the Games. That's what I'm planning on doing.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND catching the Opening Ceremony at Noon on Saturday, the 23rd. Between the massed bands (60+ bagpipes playing at once - glorious!), the March of the Clans (which you can participate in) & the invocation by the honorary chief, it's pageantry & sound you won't want to miss!
