PCM got the Long Beach GP to send its ticket holders invites to the press conference at the Hard Rock Cafe at Universal this Wednesday. If it isn't raining a ton, TravelGuy and I will probably go. I like the City Walk. Although we'll probably eat at Bubba Gumps. ;) Anyone else going, PM me if you want to meet up.

Where's Bubba Gumps?

I don't want to rain on your parade, TravelGal. :rimshot:

I hope it's not accurate. :)

From the looks of the "ticket", that's pretty much what I assumed.

Sort of makes me think that Vicki O'Connor should be running the big car show as well as Atlantics.

That has been true for a few years now. How they can get the Atlantics right and ccws so wrong at the same time is stunning.

No rain. Don't worry; be happy. Don't mean to POUR it on but if you'll read the thread title, I was rather expecting Atlantics only.

Bubba Gump's is in the City Walk. Don't know how long it's been since you've been there Indyfan31 but when we went last summer after not having been in several years, we were bowled over by how big it is now.

I can tell you in two words how PCM gets it so well: Katie Brannan. Hoping to see her there. :)

I can only imagine TravelGal, the last time I was there was literally the week it opened. EVERYTHING was overpriced, so I never went back.
However, depending on prior commitments and the traffic between Alhambra and Universal City, Mrs. IF31 and I might make an evening of it.

Totally agree. Anyone who knows her is the richer for it.

Totally agree. Anyone who knows her is the richer for it.I don't know about richer, IIRC every team she worked for from 99-03 folded at the end of the season.

Does that mean she got out just in time? Jumped the sinking ship? Knew when to fold 'em? :D

I'm wondering if she's going to be the rumored new PR head. Given your comment, how ominous is THAT?!!!! LOL.

Well, it's looks like I'm out for tonight. that's too bad, 'cause I've never been to one of these things and I was kinda curious.

Sorry to read that because we missed it also. TravelGuy came down with a bad cold yesterday, which is still getting worse. Something about planting a flat of winter flowers and fixing a tiny leak in the roof in the cold and wet weather over the weekend. We didn't think that standing around in 40 degree weather would do much for it.
