Me and my friends have decided to make the trip down to NYC for the draft...


We really have no idea what were doing, don't have a hotel room or anything yet.


a few questions for those who have gone, or have knowledge on the subject...


Do all the hotels near the draft site get booked up pretty quickly? If we want to stay near the draft, should we look into getting a hotel pretty quickly.


How much are tickets? How do we get them?





Anything else you think we would need to know.


Thanks

1) Get a hotel now
2) Tickets are free. It's first come first serve
3) Get there EARLY! The morning of the draft it's not a bad idea to get spot in line at 5am.

4 years at the draft I have not gone wrong

hotels aren't that hard to get, but get them quick

the earlier you get there the better off you are for tickets

You can bring Magazines and **** like that. Depending on the location you will have to check with their rules about beverages.

In the past I have been let in as early as 9am and as late as 10:30am. They like to get people in early though.

I'm thinking about going myself but I won't know for sure until February. I should just catch a ride with you!

Here's a little hint. Make sure you go back the 2nd day and stay for all 7 rounds. In the end they will give you a ticket for staying and you can use that to get in the next year with out waiting

Oh I plan on it.


My friends aren't as "harcore" as me and they all were laughing at me when we were watching the draft last year and I was screaming at the T.V. after the Bills 6th round pick cause I wanted someone else. They all had no idea who anyone was after like the 3rd round.


But yeah, I'm making them stay till the end.
