There's still a few of us that are coming from out of state for the Ole Miss game, and are starting to find that Hotel Rooms are harder and harder to find, especially close to the stadiums.

Does anyone have any connections to get good rates?  I'm looking for myself, however, I know that there are others that would benefit, as well.

Given my vision issues, I cannot drive (yes, I know that I can do taxis all over), however, I also have a few work-related appointments around the stadium, so I need to be as centrally located as possible to help reduce transportation expenses.

Barring this, if there's any of the more respected members willing to let me crash at your place, I can throw a few bucks your way, as well.  :D

So how about it, Hog fans?  Anyone got connections that can help us out-of-staters that are coming in?

(I arrive on the evening of the 20th and depart the 24th).

Any parties going on, outside of the usual haunts (I know about the Friday stuff), but would love to meet as many hog fans as possible.  I definitely have Foghorn's scheduled the Friday before.

Feel free to PM me, as well.  :)

Thanks!

A friend of mine stayed in Springdale, right on the highway. Got his reservation the week OF the Bama game.

Do hotels that are a ways out have 'shuttles'??

I am staying at the Cosmopolitan Hotel. Walking distance to Dickson Street activities!

Douglas,  you should go to Craigslist.  In the search field type in bear lodging.  You will have many options to choose from.  Or just create a listing, Bear seeks lodging.
Little known fact, but prior to settling on Guantanamo, the Pentagon wanted to house terror suspects at War Memorial Stadium.  It was deemed to be cruel and unusual punishment and in violation of the Geneva Convention.

So where do the Landsharks stay? I don't think there is an aquarium nearby. :)
If I'm going to cheer players and coaches in victory, I damn sure ought to be man enough to stand with them in defeat.
