Absolutely right on Jared!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> Blade is a really great time; you get to know the Busse crew and so many fellow Dogs, Rats, and Hogs. Of course, there are a few knives there as well. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Buddy-up with someone and share the costs, saving money for blades! You will be glad that you went. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Time to go sell my kidney guys be back in awhile <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />.

If you set aside your spare change or a couple of dollars when you can, it will add up quickly over a year's time. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

i know what you mean kidney, blood, hell maybe even [censored] haha idk if id go that far but got to get money to go out there and hang out and meet some of you guys love it here on the yard and would like to be able to put some faces to some of the names on here plus get me a new knife or two while im there <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />

I can just about guarantee that you will have a great time! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

yeah thats what im looking forward to but im gonna start taking at least 20 dollars or more out a pay check to get it moving and save up what i am going to need for down there i need to look for a hotel room now so i can have a place to stay if not ill sleep in the car for two days either way i will go and will have at least one new knife come home with me

Just out of curiosity: I was checking how much it would cost me to visit Atlanta. I made a search for four nights in hotel in Atlanta and flights with only one change.

Visiting Blade next year would cost me about 1700 USD (+tickets, etc) and one way flight time would be about 16-18 hours! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />

I´ll just have to think it once or twice before going... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

ok since you brought up prices and all that it sparked my intrest to see how much tickets are going to be for down there or what is the going rate normaly for tickets down there. just trying to figure out all of my expenses for blade in the upcoming year

If you are talking about tickets to get into the show, I think it cost $10.00 for a three-day pass, using a VIP pass you can get free from the Busse Companies. In other words, the VIP pass from Busse and $10.00. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Well, that´s not too bad. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

But I´m still about 2000$ short... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />
