Scored GA. Staying at Hyatt, not sure how I'm getting there from Madison yet

I was planning on driving from Madison, but lost the lottery if you know of any extra tickets

Finally got email at 8:30 est for RS as priority 1 - confirming my suspicions of being safe when lower priorities started scoring. Love being official now. I haven't been to Rupp since 1996 AC/DC's Ballbreaker tour - when stationed for training at Fort Knox. Can't wait! Heading over from sunny side of Louisville (Southern Indiana).

Thank you for your service!

@FoxyRedLa ...Appreciate that! Lots of good people in the service then and now (& before me). I feel fortunate to have served along side them. Good times! Better times coming in Lexington this April!!!

Darrin - not many people here identify themselves as military - which no problem with that but I got to say thank you twice in the last few days. Wish I could do more than say thank you. Yes wishing you the best and Lexington

As someone mentioned early on in this thread, I highly recommend staying for Keeneland the following day. (runs Wed-Sun only). No need to stay in Louisville, PLENTY to do in Lexington.

Yes! Or come in on Sunday if you want to be there when it will be ridiculously packed. You can tailgate and everything.

Been a member a while, but this is my first show that I've been able to attend using Ten Club pre-sale!! I'm super-pumped that I won Reserved seating! Anybody with past experience on how "decent" the reserved tickets are?

FoxyRedLa

BB depends on your member # but you should have great seats!! Why?? Because you're in the building!!!

But seriously you'll have good seats!

Vedder4Prez

It sounds like GA is better than reserved.

I got reserved seating for the Lexington show and booked the Hyatt right beside the venue. I can tell you one thing for sure is that the day after you have to eat breakfast at this place. I always stop their on my travels to Louisville from Parkersburg WV. The jalepeno cheesy grits are amazing.

Country Boy Brewing is between your hotel and the arena. Just saying.....

(It's not a very big or aesthetically pleasing place, but the beer is good and they have a small patio out back if the weather is nice.)

Congratulations everyone! As long as nothing changes Saul Good which is right by Rupp will have half price signature mixed drinks from 3-6. They have a hell of a strawberry old fashioned made with Bullitt Bourbon. Hopcat should have $3.50 Pints for the local beers and half price burgers 3-6 as well I believe. Both great places to eat and grab some pregame food.
