    Is there any way to know how far down the list I am?

    I will buy plane tickets at a moment’s notice. I just don’t know if I want to commit to the trip if my SBR pals will be preoccupied with SBR events I can’t attend.

    I have tried to get a couple non-SBR pals to go, but their wives have their balls under lock and key at the moment.

    Last time the standby list had numbers. Maybe it’s not that way this time. Sure there will be an update soon.

    Ok. Do you know how long those who have signed up have to post up airline tickets?

    Thanks for the info, Matty

    Unfortunately I don’t...if I recall Punta Cana, I think it was like 6 weeks before. Although some people started dropping before then and let SBR know.

    Ok. Hopefully I can still get a good deal on a flight if it takes that long.

    Man two weeks out of the last 12 months I didn’t scour the board every day and this happens to me.

    Can't participate in anything staying elsewhere or even paying your own way.

    I always go a week or 2 before NFL season and sign up with my proxy for Super Contest

    I am in the same boat.

    But don’t see a point in booking a trip for those dates if I can’t enjoy SBR festivities

    I get that it is 5 months out, but it doesn’t make sense to me that any old pro can reserve a spot without posting up airline tickets when there are many like myself that didn’t see the thread in time but can post up airline tickets at the drop of a hat.

    Seems like you should have a set amount of time to post up tickets (and not 3 mons) or you are dropped.

    I will be there one way or the other. I'm with greaser. Greaser don't worry about the plane. I will grab you in the rig and then we go down to Vegas and party all the way there and back.

    greaser what SBR FESTIVITIES are you worried about missing out on? It looks like there's a "dinner" and a poker tourney along with the IFBC stuff.....there's typically a group of 5-10 guys who have met before who tend to hang out most of the time....you'll have a great time either way

    Well it’s not really clear.

    It could be a dinner, it could be an area that is roped off for the whole weekend with “plenty of food and beverages”.

    Which again, I don’t care about the cost, just don’t want to be outside the ropes twiddling my thumbs.


    I saw saw where you asked the JT what time he signed up..... I looked and I was 10 DAYS late. Fuk me

    I can only go by what happed at the IFBC last year and previous bashes.....the only "roped off area" was the booth that Opie was sitting in where you could get a picture with him for $25....honestly the line to his booth was longer than the one for Brett Favre.....shoot me a text, youll be fine

    People actually PAY to get a picture with Opie?




    Unreal what a bunch of hamburgers




    I will probably go either way. My golf league partner may go—he gambles quite a bit, but his wife is a tyrant.

    I agree with Philly...95% of your time will be non-bash events (since all are invited to the IFBC). You should plan on going.

    We can make you the designated beer runner during the poker event if you don’t make the cut.
