I keep hearing about something new for football. Let me know when we actually break ground. Hope I’m still above ground when that actually takes place.

You should adjust your will so that if you’re not then your remains be moved and buried mid field. I bet if you made a big enough donation to the women’s badminton program Foley would allow it.

Now to find a cheap seedy hotel in downtown orlando because i damn sure aint paying disney and universal prices!

There’s one of those damn near directly across the East/West Exp. from the stadium. I just passed by it last weekend going to and from Orlando. It definitely fits your criteria. As a matter of fact, I think they even let you rent a room by the hour. Can’t be more than $35 for 24 hours. I’ll try to get the name for you next time I’m passing through town. :lol:

Look for a hotel north of dowtown, like Altamonte Springs. It won't be seedy but it will be cheaper than the tourist district and it's quick drive.

If I emailed Stricklin it would be to tell him to go kick Foley in the balls.

I'd go to Oviedo or something. Altamonte has terrible traffic all the time too.

The Altamonte Hilton used to be pretty reasonable but I’m going back 20 years so I don’t know if that’s still the case. West of I-4 on 436 should give plenty of good choices at a reasonable price if the Hilton doesn’t work.

Oviedo is too far away from the stadium and the traffic getting to & from would be a nightmare. Altamonte has so many choices right by the interstate that the traffic on the surface streets won’t be an issue. If the I-4 construction is a concern a decent room should be available for a few bucks more at Lee or Fairbanks. Any extra cost compared to Oviedo would be worth it just to save the extra 45 minutes of drive time to that former cow pasture/celery farm.

You can stay in altamonte right by I-4. It’s not like you have to stay deep in it near wekiva or anything. I wonder if the UCF area would be cheap. Direct shot to DT, maybe a 20 min drive and I never used to have issues with traffic, but that was 10 years ago

Join the Coast Guard Auxiliary and you can stay at the Rosen Center hotel for $99.....or just make a reservation there and ask for the Auxiliary rate.

I’m not sure where to park the RV. I once stayed overnight outside this stadium, and feared for my life when everyone left the tailgate.

What say you, BNA?
