nah, just brought it up 'cause a few people had said they might buy one, and I thought I could save someone a few bucks. I'm fine with the sink, as I'll most likely only need to keep a mixer or two chilled for some vodka ... but I know a lot of people like to buy a case or two of brew to keep on hand, for which a sink won't work. I'll prob bring one just in case anyone needs it since I have room and fridges sound very limited.

So, someone fill me in on the water and food sitch at Hart Plaza again... I seem to recall reading something about 30 pages about the gate security being fairly lax with that sort of thing, but other boards are saying that any water/snacks need to be snuck in. Is it nothing but overpriced 300ml bottles and fast food once inside?
Water is overpriced, beer is overpriced... foos is reasonable. It's tons of different food, chicken fingers and fries, hot dogs, sausages, corndogs, pizza, pretty much anything you get at a carnival or fair. But remember, you can leave and go as you please... there are a few restaurents in the area if you want a break and wanna go eat. You can try to sneak in liquids, but they usually make you spill it if you make it obvious bringing it in...

Yeah true... but you don't want to get caught, you never know if they change security... do you really want to lose your 3day pass and not be allowed in for a couple beers?
I'd say, test the security out Saturday, then following accordingly after...
Also, you can go in the front, leave and come back using the back entrace where usually all they care about is the braclet...

Yeah, I mentioned I was buying one, but that's because I need one and what better time than now, and i'm sure that it will be cheaper in the D as well...

Well it looks like a hot one this weekend, and at least the chance of thunderstorms on Monday went down to 40% from 90%!
And for anyone in Ontario... I highly suggest that you get Out Of Province Insurance... it's pretty cheap, less than $3 a day... I just bought Sat-Tues from CAA for $11.52. You can also get it from your bank sometimes or get extended from your benifets at work.
Either way, I would check into it before you go! It's not a bad thing, you never know what could happen, from dehyrdration from being in the sun all day, food posioning, broken bones from a fall, cuts and scraps... whatever it could be
I had a friend who had a wee bit to much to drink in Detroit one night, passed out in a club, club MADE us call an albulance because of liability and insurance, went to the hospital, she was in there 4 hours and they ran some tests. 2 weeks later she got a bill for $2300 and that was only hospital bed, doctor consult and the tests and abulance ride.
Just call them up, give them your name, DOB, address etc.. and you can pay over the phone on credit card and then they will email or fax you your policy.
CAA - 1-800-267-8713
Betetr safe than sorry, and for only $12...

Fishbones downtown is delicious and well priced (all kinds of seafood)

if i am correct.... insurance won't cover you if its self inflicted....

I think it would be amazing if we got a nice sun shower Monday afternoon.
Weather seems PERFECT.
