Going to try and make it if I'm not in St Louis on business.

Been far too long since I've been able to make to anything!

For publicity sake for Brit's. If you have a Union jack of any kind on your vehicle, parking in front of Brit's would be a cool thing. We only have 10 confirmed (so far) spots out front at the moment. We are arriving in town after a parade so hopefully the traffic won't be terrible and there won't be a lot of cars parked there.

UPDATE: Lawrence approved the blocking of 10 parking spaces out front of Brits for us. Good to go. See you guys on the 28th.

For those of us calendar impaired, the 28th is a Saturday.

I'm in. :elec:

BTW, aren't you Zackattack 30 now? :mrgreen:
Please provide an itinerary. What is the ETA for Brit's? I'll seek you on Mass.
Like I said, I'll seek you on Mass... so I guess I will find my own parking spot.

BTW... 4 blocks down the street, the Rev It Up Car Show is happening...

I'm aware of the car show lol. We will arrive in Lawrence immediately after the parade. I wanted to get more parking in front but 10 was the best I could do without complaints from businesses.

Since we will be arriving immediately after a parade I'm sure there will be empty parking spaces around near Brit's other than just the 10 confirmed blocked off ones. So we will try and get everyone together if we can.

I'll be in Lawrence, but at a philanthropy event so I'll see if I swing by for a little bit.

As far as food, Jeffersons is a good college town eat (wings, burgers, fired pickles).

Dempseys Burger Pub is two blocks or so over on Vermont and has pretty good food.

Free State Brewing Co. would be a great place as well

I think Jefferson's would be good. It's a few blocks up from where we will be parked but could be a relaxing casual place. Who is up for that? Or other suggestions.

Once this sorts itself out, it would be prudent to call Free State and make a lunch reservation with an over on the head count. We're on our own @ Jefferson's to seat 10-12+...

If you would like me to call my contact at FS, let me know. They will provide us a dining room upstairs for all of us.

How appropriate that it rains when a bunch of British cars are parked in front of Brits lol.
