tmignemi02 Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 what was parking in NC?I think Scranton is $5 now <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I think it was $7 in NC. I had 2 corps members in the car with me, so I didn't have to pay it. Heyyyyyyyyyyyy.......that's a great idea. Grab a corps member in uniform and sail right through.

JohnZ Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 It was $7. And you can bet they'll catch on to that little loophole next time! ( we were issued parking tags to get in through the corps' entrance in the back) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muzzicman1 Posted August 15, 2005 Author Share Posted August 15, 2005 So over the 3 days in Boston/Providence a family of 3 paid roughly $745.00 for just attending DCI. This includes Room, show tickets, parking and the City of Foxboro taxes. It does NOT include the cost of airline tickets, food/drink and any variables..... that would be around $1200.00..... B) I also heard there was a bomb scare right after Blue Knights which cleared the stadium seats for a period of time...... Ahhh......DCI..............Now I'm ready for DCA its........SHOWTIME Baby!!!!! Muz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmarnl Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Supply and demand, baby. If you don't wanna pay the prices, don't go. Easy. It was packed BTW. So I guess some of us didn't mind all that much. In any case, why complain about something you want no part of, especially on the senior forum? Enjoy DCA and all that encompasses it. Why do you feel the need to bag on DCI, though, Billy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMoonlightChef Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 (edited) Can I just comment that I paid $20 for 2 24 ounce Sam Adams drafts on Friday night!?!?!? I was in shock when I handed a 20 and asked how much and she took the 20 and said thank you, NEXT! I walked away slack jawed and a corpsmate had to snap me out of it... <**> Edited August 15, 2005 by CabsMello03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmarnl Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Not me. I had a glass of vino at Bertucci's ($5.00), a few double-deuce blueberry ales at Owen O'Leary ($3.25 a pop) over the course of four days and that was about it. I didn't find the prices anymore out-of-line than where I live.

TheMoonlightChef Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 I didn't say they were out of line. I'm a die hard Pats fan and realize that a lot of the vendors were supporting bands/guards what have you. My point is... I GUESS NOT. Nevermind then...

kmarnl Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 That was a lot more civil than the PM I received. However you still need to use contractions such as "you're" in place of you are. Not your. I don't think they are marching bands. I know this since I've been in marching bands and we had woodwinds. Unless you are counting The Ohio State University band who don't have woodwinds and I don't think much of them. JMHO. Ouch....I suppose your right, but its my opinion.
