SOS poker run? It's time

[PARADOX]

I think it's time to plan a great SOS Poker Run.
Who's in? and let's start working on details, and location.

[spilman]

hmmm....so many ideas. One thing I like about the Jammin On the James poker run is the cost; $299 I think. I would love to do more Poker Runs America events, but they are so darn expensive(although I'm not complaining about the $10k cash we took home from Abay last yr).
Location is critical for some, but if we can't afford it it is irrelevent! Keeping the cost between $200-$350 would allow for some nice prizes, but would bring more "regular joes" to enjoy the event.
Has anyone ever tried an event with different entry levels & prize levels? Not sure if it's do-able but that way the high rollers could get their groove on as well.

[PARADOX]

I think the entry fee should be small. THe prices ?? well I think most attendees ar attending for the fun not for the prices.
If this gets going,.... I invision a special run, that's not the typ. run which are profit driven. Lot needs to be done,, but I think we should get into it.

[Formula 382 sr-1]

It could be a good time . Let us know !!!! :sifone:

[PARADOX]

Couple thoughts. A special envilope, random.. You get your crew to show titties..(female of course) you get an extra Ace.
First one at the dock.. special envilope.. it may be.. you get a card taken away.. or an extra card..or... get beat up for being cockie..:rofl: It's a run.. not a race. Safest.. friendliest crew... automatic Ace... Smallest boat.. a card of your choice.. etc.. etc.. we have to make this fun.. stay tuned there is more..
and of course suggestions are welcomed.

Stecz, you have to have a boat to enter. Maybe you could borrow one from the Kid.:)

Not fair, Clay won before we even started.

Does Otis know?

[Dreamer]

location suggestion to start

[Cash Bar]

Somewhere in the middle?

How about Cumberland or Norman. Both of their "regular" events are late in the year.

Maybe week before Memorial Day for a nice season kickoff?

I personally like Lanier, but it would prob be more difficult with past water conditions.

[BY U BOY]

Texas.

[phragle]

western erie...

[stecz20]

Does Otis know?

he sure does..... ask him.......:03::03::03:

[Ted]

Chesapeake Bay, center of all things related to the sport :D :D :D

Tank told me he has some real nice LA boys set up for you!

Cashbar, seems like I'm following you all over the sites tonight.

+1 for Norman!

[Cash Bar]

+1 for Norman!

What about the timing?

Anyone?

I like the season kickoff idea. :biggrinjester:

[GENERAL LEE]

Ok, seriously?

If we're meeting in the middle, we're going to LOTO. This site isn't big enough for all of the reasons. :sifone:

[Tom A.]

this is my boat....:03::03::03:

A boat load of dudes, of course its Stecz!:sifone:

What he said. It does not get much more central than LOTO.

Save me a seat too B.:sifone:

That location works for me and it is definately in the middle.

[PARADOX]

I saw that thread, but I thought it was the standard Desert Storm run with SOS dudes and dudets going.
I was thinking about a totaly new run as SOS being the main organizer.

LOTO probobly is the best Mid. location.
I have some contacts at Tan Tara, resort. Host hotel ?
The problem with LOTO is with all the new BS.
S. Carolina? on the ocean? Myrte Beach area?

My vote is in Sarasota.. or in the Tampa Bay/St Pete area. an hour away. :biggrinjester:

[justgolf]

loto:iagree:

[danh63]

western erie...

sounds great to me

[Boss252]

My vote is Loto

[Tommy Gun]

I won't argue with LOTO...have couple of extra rooms and dock space.

not after i move in your not gonna.... :03::03:

[cosmic12]

What about summer time somewhere on the Great Lakes? Those waters can be very nasty sometimes or a lot of fun depending on how you look at it or what you are driveing. Besides the SOS home is Ohio. Start it and end at the Flats.

I'll need a large cash deposit....

[VetteLT193]

If it is a season starter then S. Fla makes more sense.

Hook up with Stu for a Miami Boat Show run and get some TV coverage to boot.

Sounds good all but one thing. I have to come by way of the PA Turnpike .:(:(:(

[macjazzy]

Dreamer, you have a he!! of an idea there. I live on the Chesapeake bay but I love boating on the great lakes. This plan gets my vote.

[L-V]

Ok, seriously?

I second LOTO

[spilman]

1st choice Lake Norman
2nd choice Chesapeake
3rd choice Great Lakes
All great choices, the weekend before Memorial Day is perfect weather in NC or Virginia
It would be iffy @ best on the big water of the Great Lakes

??Prizes or prices??
Price/entry fee low enough to make it accessible to all-but enough to make for some interesting prizes....that's all :dupe:

[Griff]

LOTO gets my vote as well.

Centrally located, hundreds of places to stay with dock space and plenty of places to party it up.

Works for me.

Hey Brent, not sure if you are following this thread but it might be a place to head to break in the Top Gun!

If there is one at LOTO and you need a couple of seats we will have room for you. That is as long as you don't mind riding in an old slow resin bucket.

[38fountainSC]

I vote with Dreamer's Lake Erie run. Only skip shooters boats there overnight are not safe with the ships coming in.

Formula I understand your conserns with the Pa. turnpike. We are thinking about coming down there for Rock the Bay in the spring.

Hey a lot of these places I will need a ride. MY poor little 25 might have some problems

[Trim'd Up]

Don't feel bad, I only have a 24' nowdays. LOTO is defiantely the most convienient for me, but I am willing to try new things, especially if I can leave my little boat at home. :26:

One word: LOTO!

this thread is for boaters NOT avaitors!!!:rofl:

[Formula 382 sr-1]

I like the Chesapeake Bay LOWER PART but Cleveland does not sound bad If we can get through the PA Turnpike . :ack2:

[LaughingCat]

tampa bay, baby. still warm enough to get one last poker run before christmas.

"Warm the Bun(s) Run 2008"

[db71]

I think we should have a sos poker run season like PRA does could be a great marketing for the site maybe even have one overseas.

[LaughingCat]

i'm open to adding the name on my boat. Jayboat making the decals? I need one for the front of my electronics box (Scarab Sport with reverse radar arch)
