that's what we discussed to....location....cab cost/transportation....how many people can fit...prices...etc...
We were always too many people upstairs at 9FI, getting in the waitresses way to where sometimes, even i felt like i wasn't welcome....why would i want to spend my hard earned $$ where we don't really feel welcome and shoved out onto the patio where it's hard to mingle and when it's really kinda chilly??
we heard a lot of comments last year about doing something new and changing locations to something other than 9FI, so we did...plus it helps us with our catering minimum.
The room we're getting is upstairs from Garduno's...there is a patio and about 2 big screen TV's for sunday night football...that location is all ours, nobody is going to be telling us we have to leave or making us serve ourselves or what not and we're not going to be cramped up to where we can't move around much and there should be plenty of seating, probably cheaper drinks too....But bring some $$ because the open bar is really only for an hour. cash bar after 9pm.
its not a mandatory event, there's no registration for it, its just something to do before the big day is upon us....so you guys are more than welcome to go to 9FI on Sunday night if you want to keep the tradition up!
