    Yes, it’s a great spot, easy to take light rail or u we or just walk. We do get blizzards in April so hopefully it’s 75 and sunny that day.
    Yes, the weather. I was thinking about the weather while booking everything last night. Will be an interesting week regardless.

    Saved $300 CDN booking my room near the Pepsi Center on Monday.  Prices have skyrocketed.

    People can try the Denver tech center or the DTC. Easy light rail ride and good hotels. Maybe 15-20 min train ride

    Light rail has a Pepsi center stop and runs pretty much anywhere. I’d look for cheap hotels along the rail

    Anybody remember where the 2016 wishlist party was? Was it a good venue/successful event?

    So much to see and lots to do that dont involve beer or pot.
    Visit Red Rocks. It's a Denver City park so it's open during the day.
    Go to Boulder and hike Chautauqua and the Flatirons
    If it's open hit the Shelby Museum in Boulder.
    Denver Art Museum is a worthwhile visit.
    Go to Snooze for brunch/ breakfast but there will be a wait at any location.
    Rosenbergs for the best bagels west of the Hudson.
    So many restaurants to choose from but try to get to Root Down.
    For beer selection and food near the venue go to Freshcraft.
    For beer selection near the venue go to Falling Rock Tap House.
    As for breweries there are so many to choose from ask a local resident. But stay away from the touristy places. (BJs, Wynkoop, 10 Barrel, Blue Moon,.etc)
    Go to the RiNo district for multiple breweries and quality restaurants. 
    I could go on and on.
    Stay away from the 16th st. mall

    Have fun
    I've been in CO for about 3.5yrs (moved from NY) and this post is right on point.  If you are a beer junky you definitely want to check out Falling Rock Tap House, they have a crazy good selection. If you like/prefer vegan and vegetarian food, check out City o City, Make believe Bakery, or Watercourse.  I will be staying somewhere downtown that night, then heading to DIA the following morning for PHX. 

    I would recommend getting out of downtown and seeing the mountains!

    In the can with a single BA. Only show tried for. #676xxx

     A reasonably priced dispensary with decent enough quality is Options on 44th Ave, in suburb of Wheat Ridge. Not too far from Lakeview Lounge or Pepsi Center, maybe 30min drive on the back roads. Try and avoid the interstates during rush hour if possible.

    Weather can be volitale and very localized in April! We get 300 days of sunshine a year, so let's all hope for that, but anything from tornados, hail, thunderstorms, to a two or 3 foot blizzard can happen in April here! Best to check a local Denver forecast before any packing or planning decisions. The national forecasts can be way off. Even meteorologists say it's one of the most difficult places in the country to predict the weather. Also even on a warm hot day, it cools of drastically at night compared to most cities, due to the altitude. Ventures into the mountains can present completely different weather than the city as well.
    You can see it all in the course of a single day sometimes! It can be a sight to see in itself. Lol

    Does anyone know what sections the 10c tickets are for this show?  A screen shot of the stadium when you picked.  If not, does anyone know if it was just floor, 100 and 200 level or was it the entire place including behind stage?

    I don’t remember seeing any sections behind the stage highlighted...I wanna say it was just 100, 200 levels and the floor 

    edit: there were some highlighted in the lower 300 sections along the sides...

    Based on VF availability, looks like a sell out for sure. Hopefully we get the show of the tour. Day before Good Friday = a Saturday show vibe maybe?

    I’m in. I won a pair through 10C. But hopefully I can’t go because my BMT (bone marrow transplant) gets approved. That is my life right now.

    To any locals, can you confirm if the Hilton Denver City Center hotel (1701 California St.) is in a good, central location?  It appears to be relatively close to the arena, but I'd also like to be relatively close to good food, breweries, etc.  Thanks in advance.

    It’s a nice hotel right in down town. Tons of food and stuff walkable from there. The Arena is a 5 minute Uber ride

    Cool.  Price was good and had good reviews so I went with it.  Appreciate the feedback.

    Awesome! I live in Denver and my brother visits once a month for work and always stays there. Good bar and restaurant downstairs. 16th street mall is a block away where there is a ton of food and some good touristy stuff. 
    About a 15 minute walk is Union Station where there is a ton of good bars and some good food. 

    You picked a great spot

    To all: reminder TC seats will be revealed the week of 1/27 not on 1/27. I’m sure several of our fellow club members will start to freak out Monday afternoon and I wanted to save you some stress and getting blasted on the boards for asking why we haven’t received our seat locations yet.
