Ok, that's easy! And $5 seems very reasonable to me.

I don't dare step into the food ring with you guys, I'll bring some pretzels and maybe some brothers pepperoni for the grill.
I don't want to jinx it but I have a giant tarp (40'x30') should we need to stay dry.

It was rainy as hell last year so X went out and bought a canopy - I'm assuming that's still around for this year if need be.

It is. But maritimer's 10x10 was a real bonus on the deck.

If it rains this year, I am cancelling Hoptoberfest forever.

Too lazy to read back through all the notes here...

Has anyone invited the local breweries to participate (as in bring a keg by)? :chug:

I haven't done anything in that regards, and probably won't have time with the other stuff.

Anyone have any hotel connections in the downtown area? I'm looking for a room for 3 or maybe 4 guys for the 27th and 28th, preferably close to downtown.
