Have two for Friday the 23rd that I'm looking to let go of. Food and alcohol included inside of the tent which will also have live entertainment.

PM me for more details.

i was going to start a separate thread making fun of this fabulous wristband opportunity i got in email, but might as well use this thread;

$75-100 to hang out with total strangers standing in a packed line after paying for carnival admissions and parking? Are you sure that's enough money???

To each their own.

Most tents I have been in, the only people I know are the people that went in with me. To me the amount of fun depends on the quality of the entertainment and food in the tent not how many people you know.

I vehemently disagree with that. What is the point in going into some massive tent if you only know 2 or 3 people?

The same can be said about bars

This is a twist on the usual thread. Normally it's someone offering to pay money to hang out with a bunch of strangers.

How much will dinner, drinks, and a concert cost you for a date?

Dinner and a couple drinks for 2 is easily $80. 3 drinks each at a bar will run you another ~$50. And live entertainment will run you ~$25 each. Just a matter of what some people like to do with their time and what they consider value.

Like HB just said. It's like going to a very popular bar. And if you can get into a few tents it's like a strip of bars.

It's not something I enjoy doing often but once a year is good enough for me. Plus it's closer than Mardi Gras.

I've only gone when I know I can get more than 1 tent without having to fork out moola.

Depends on the bar I guess. Going somewhere with a couple of friends where you can sit down and have a conversation, I'd say that's quite a bit different than going to cookout.....don't you think? If you want to compare it to going to a bar with a few people, a similar analogy would be like going to Cle or Spire (never been, but seen pics), except it's a massive amount of fake cowboys vs. $30k millionaires.

Dinner and a couple drinks for 2 is easily $80. Dinner at a restaurant where I'm not eating on paper plates and have people waiting on me.
3 drinks each at a bar will run you another ~$50. Again, you're talking drinks from a bar that are brought to me, not well drinks out of plastic cups that I wait in line 30 mins for.
And live entertainment will run you ~$25 each. Not to see a drunk cover band in a tent

Cookoff is a blast but in no way would I pay to go.

I'll take the vendor tickets given to me and go all weekend, but hell to the no for paying to get into a tent. I'm sure some sucker will take them off your hands though.

Can you do an 80% discount for the ass pain of having to go into public and driving into Houston?

Asking for a friend (but not a friend that would go).

I'll give you 0.00013 Bitcoin. It should be worth well over your asking in about a year.

You go on some ****ty dates if you're even thinking of comparing a date night to the cookoff experience. Remember, we're talking over $100 per person, plus the hassle of getting there, to stand in line for drinks and hope there's enough barbecue.

*edit: I'm not talking about your particular offer, I'm sure your tent is great and I don't think you would do anybody wrong. Just talking concepts here.

Saturdays at the cookoff are a sight to behold. If you can get passes to a couple of tents, it is well worth it.

do I post links in this thread for the Cavendars sale so everyone can get a new ten gallon hat and belt buckles, or do I need to start a new thread?
