London suggestions - Travel / Accom / Food / Beer etc

lol you need a "bithes" section for the lonely guys

just recived email from organisers of the green man tailgate
for anyone gonna be there

Hi John,

Sorry for the delay but I've been away at the Coaches Convention for a few days...

Great to hear you are visiting and attending the party and the game. Full details will be released shortly about the events at the Green Man Hotel as I am finalising the program now. Usually there are loads of people at the hotel on the Saturday during the day. There should be a NFL and merchandise stand there but it will be informal until late afternoon. There is always plenty to do around Wembley anyway...
There will be a Halloween event on the Saturday night too and the full Tailgate Party on Sunday.

All details will be posted at http://www.facebook.com/pages/Wembley/The-Great-British-Tailgate-Party-Green-Man-pub-Wembley/256300652309?v=wall so join up if you haven't already...

I might have 1 available. I bought 2 but I'll probably be going by myself.

you should hook it up! How much did you pay?

I payed £80.00 each for them which comes out to about $140 but, I can give a Zoner Discount and sell it for about $100.

ads_2006 has first dibs but I havent heard from him in awhile. He wasnt sure if he had any time to go.

You pretty much have a guarantee here if ads doesn't want it. I will definitely be going to London and the greenman thing, but if I can't get a ticket then I will just watch it at the hotel.

Yeah, I'll send ads a message to see if he is still down to go or not. Here's my dilemma though... I'm leaving for Europe 17 days before the game. And so if I dont get the tickets before I leave I'll have to switch the shipping location to London. If I reserve my hotel room well in advance I'll just send it there. If not I've already talked to a person in London who can hold them for me till I arrive, but that is plan C.

As long as you get them about an hour before the game starts that's all that matters I'm excited now because I actually have a shot of getting in the stadium. My plan was to take a 30 minute flight and just land in London. Go to my hotel and chill there for a while. Then go to the greenman party and watch it there. I never realistically thought I could get a ticket. Scalping was my only option...hope everything works out!

all left to say coming into preseason gooooooooooooooooooooo 9ers

I live in Germany. That's why it is an opportunity I cannot pass up. It is a really cheap flight for me and i'm really close to London
