Asian passports are hard to come by....

You answered your own question in here.

The brokedikk, convicted felons aren't exactly the demographic that most companies target.

I've been to several bashes, and they're absolutely first class. Start to finish.

If a poster can't afford to go, then they're most likely not helping to support the site financially anyways. As good of a guy as John is, he ain't running no charity. The bash is SBR's way of saying thank you to those that support them. It's a reciprocal relationship.

In reality, 50 of the right guys would be plenty to make it a great trip.

They are broke dikks for a reason though Opie.

....I havent been to a bash, but plan on attending this one and this post is spot on. Broke Dikks need not apply....

[thetrinity]

good choice, went there for punta cana poker classic

[SBR_John]

The people who keep SBR in business are those depositing thousands offshore over the course of the year. Those people can afford to travel to the DR.

Does nobody any good if a bunch of low-life scraper by's all converge on Vegas because of free hotel and they could hop on a spirit flight for $100. It'd be a fun time I'm sure, but from SBR business perspective... Futile and useless.

The bash in Costa Rica was phenomenal. There was fishing, golf, poker, and a harem of girls for each poster.

Personally, I like something different than Vegas. As Opie explained its good business. I've been to this place and smoked Cuban cigars at the craps table while nursing a sunburn that wore through my sunscreen. These are world class beaches. There are lifeguards and after you swim out 50 yards you will know why. Everyone(ie all the girls) on the property are drinking free. I opted for an afternoon horseback ride on the beach. Every few miles I refilled my bourbon. Should of got a DUI.

For those who can't swing it just keep plugging away. There is no shame in not being able to afford this trip. Don't let anyone get you down. All of us were brokediks for half our life and I certainly wouldn't be on this guest list in my younger years.

[BigDeem5]

Look at John calling out posters! I wonder what the o/u is on attendes

[daneblazer]

Don't think SBR could pick a more awful time and place for a Bash.
It's like they don't want anyone to go.
50 ppl show up max.
That's not a 2 or 3 day weekend spot.
It's a week long vacation kind of location.
$500 a night for rooms so if you want to actually stay there the whole superbowl week and not just 2 nights, it's going to cost you a fortune.

The airfare is steep, and you are talking about a forum full of broke dikks.
Probly 10 members that would go that aren't even allowed to leave the country.

Vegas was the only logical site for the best turnout.
It's cheap, it's great for 2 or 3 days, there's no sites to see, and would be your biggest turnout.
Not to mention there is no better place to be for a SuperBowl than Vegas.

Massive fail in the making.

For some reason, SBR wanted a shitty turnout here.

Too easy to bring a gun to Vegas. At least in the Dominican you'd have to get it through the TSA

Sounds like it'll be a hell of a time. I've spent probably 14 weeks of my life at the Club Med there for Spring Breaks and it is absolutely phenomenal. I've played a lot of good golf and Corales (in Punta Cana) just might be my favorite course I've ever played. Never looked forward to a superbowl more and look forward to meeting you and the rest of the gang at the Hard Rock in 10 months

Only downside is the rain, which I'm assuming can be an issue in February as well, but oh well, so be it if we get stuck in the casino gambling for a day (oh, the horror )

[InTheDrink]

Spirit should be called Slum Airlines. Zero chance I would ever fly with them.

As far as the Punta Cana Bash goes........IN!!!

Hey pal we don't all fly fukkin charter

I've had far more bad experiences on us air than I have on spirit. Airline industry as a whole is a big pile of suckbag.

Virgin is the best by a long shot fwiw

[daneblazer]

I know a few farmers who might let you ride there on their crop duster for a small fee if you're looking to cut costs

[paco]

Don't understand all the hate for spirit air. I never had a problem with them

[opie1988]

But let's be real here. You're only 5'4 with your shoes on. For those of us taller posters, those cramped seats are a nightmare.

do you have any idea how easy it is to get a gun down there? not a problem at all

[Louisvillekid1]

Im in but would have to stay longer than 2 nights for that travel

[Triple_D_Bet]

Way to go SBR, pure class I'll be there!

[SomeDayinBuffalo]

Great place to have it. Im in as of now. Just comes down to getting off of work. Planning on coming down a few day early if it's not to crazy in price.

[shaunovery]

Me too kid , a 10 hr flight for me looking to get there on the Friday and stay till Monday

[marcoloco]

wow place looks amazing

[tto827]

SBR you wanna give us a rough estimate of the nightly rate we are looking at if we decide to stay for a couple extra days?

Thanks

For me three days is reasonable to fly down, but if we got a crew of Triple, Lkid, Shaun, even Buffalo is pure class from what I've seen, along with whoever else shows up, hell I'll kick it in the DR for a week

[Wulfman14]

Cheapest I saw for the Friday via Expedia is £485 pounds (700 dollars) but john said we can get a discount via the sign up in the summer

But agree the place looks fab and can't wait I'm definitely going

This is not an inexpensive joint. BUT, keep in mind they have fabulous restaurants, clubs, concerts and bars and everything is free. I dined in the steak house every day...making sure I get my moneys worth. I think our rate is around $500 a night.

Also, I don't agree with the poster who said this is a week long stay joint. Three or four nights is perfect if you play hard.

BTW, a very soft poker table there. Newbie central. Bunch of drunk sunburn guys who watched a little too much poker on ESPN/ Maverick.

$500 a night if we wish to extend beyond Saturday/Sunday? Or that much for those two days as well

Shell out the cash fellas. This is first class.
