    I was hoping someone would ask "What the heck is a Coors Light Sandwich?" so I could reply "a fat guy with a Coors Light in each hand!"

    Man, I cant find anything on the food. Trying to figure out the cost, so we can finalize the per ticket price for each individual. Looks like we have our max of 15 plus an alternate, which Wookie basically designated himself as, since he is still an unknown. ;)

    What do you guys think of making this a kind of charity event?

    I'd like to see if I can raise the money to send some kids from Big Brothers/Sisters or some other organization like that to the game and share the suite.

    I'm not the expert on the prominent charities in Portland. You guys tell me if it's a good idea in the first place, and who we should partner with.

    That would be cool except I think we already have too many people wanting in on this suite as it is. However talk to SLy, I know you guys were working on an additional something that might be able to be used for that?

    I think the main issue is limited numbers of people allowed in the suites. But maybe we can try for another one or two with a max limit of half of the suite body count and the other half can be donations?

    I'm thinking if the Blazers have a 100-300 person suite, we'd go for that.

    ohhhhhh, that would be very cool. I,m struggling to find the time to investigate this on all levels ( food, Availability, ETC.) Any help anyone can provide would be great. Otherwise I should have some time to give them a call tomorrow and try to get some answers.

    They did combine a few of the suites to make a mega suite. Guessing it is not cheap.

    Let's take this one step at a time. Pick the charity. I'll see what can be done about the suite and transportation.

    I think if we want to donate money or tickets to a charity would be great. But asking a charity if they want to send children to hang out with a bunch of random men sounds very... it sounds wrong.

    I don't want to hang out with a bunch of strange children either.
