Net54baseball Banquet - 2023 National Sports Collectors Conv RSVPs - July 28th Friday

There will be a Net54baseball banquet (cheap pizza and some other cheap stuff) at the 2023 National this year, on Friday the 28th.. It will be an open bar for beer, water and soft drinks, at least.

Doors will open about 6pm. There will be 3-4 speakers, starting around 7:00'ish or 7:15, and a lot of commoraderie. That is what this is all about. In another thread we are talking about it being a little trade night too, BUT let's don't discuss that in this thread, please.

This thread is for RSVP'ing ONLY . Friends and family of Net54baseball members are welcome. Responding in this thread is best but a PM is ok too. I need a first and last name, for each member, for the reservation, as well as how many are coming with you. You won't be getting in without an RSVP. As in years past all attendees will be required to wear a name tag with your first and last name (and possibly Net54 ID). They will be available at the door. If you don't have one you won't be allowed to come to it or stay in it, if you are already there. If you want to remain anonymous this isn't the event for you. There will be a $5 non mandatory donation at the door. 100% of the donations will go to Passport for Paws Rescue in McKinney Texas. It is a 501(c)3 non profit. Look them up and you will see a great organization that saves 800-1000 dogs and cats a year. I have been fostering for them for many years.

Please let me know if you RSVP and need to cancel. This will help with the number of tables, food, waitstaff, and bartenders needed. There will be some cheap pizza served along with some nuts and cheese/crackers for appetizers. If you want to eat a nice meal you might do it before dropping by.

It will be July 28th, 2023 (Friday) from 6:00pm to 1100 pm or later...

Venue-

Embassy Suites Rosemont O'hare
Downstairs ballroom
5500 North River Road
Rosemont IL 60018

It is right across the street from Mortons Steak house.

See everyone there!!

and a card because every thread should have one...

I'll be there. Justin Burleson, party of 1.

Add another Justin to the list. Justin Powers. Just me.

John Marsili put me down please. Thanks Leon

Count me in Leon!

How about beside the name on the name tag also include the Net 54 "handle". Some of us know each other by the user name not our "real" name

Fred

Finally going to make one of these! +1

Absolutely, Fred. There will be space for a Net54 id too, and it will probably be mandatory also. What's the sense otherwise?

Cheap pizza in Chicago? Leon you might be violating a city ordinance. I do not love deep dish but not sure it gets much better than what they serve there.

These aren't Chicago's finest. Probably more like Kroger's middle of the road.

My only open night, I have, is Saturday so it might be a Giordino's night...

Giordano's on Sat might be the ONLY way they let you out of the city! By the way, both Gino's East and Giordano's have been doing frozen pizza delivery for a number of years but they are not the same as when you get them from the restaurant.

Have a great time! Maybe next year for me.

RSVP for just myself.

Benjamin Jordan
