I paid $800 for my last ticket.
It's a month too early to talk about the bash location. But I will say that out of all the bashes that I have been to the one last year in Costa Rica was by far the best. If you are into gambling, partying and having beautiful women falling for you its great but that's just for starters. The beach resort was a blast, golf and fishing were great and the mountains and scenery are something you really need to see. I guess you might say I'm leaning towards Costa Rica.
