Hey there errbody, regionals is dead - you know the drill.



Basically, I'm planning an event and I'm having trouble finding a venue. SO, if some people familiar with the area are here, that would be awesome.

the aggie, beach house, and what used to be called sports exchange are all bars in old town that I've gone to see ski movies at. It All depends on how many people you expect to show up, some have been really lame some were pretty fun. I'd just call some places up and see who's able to host it for cheap, pick a good night to have it, market and advertise well and hope for the best.

Ditch the shit hole that is Fort Collins and move it to Boulder. It would be way better there

Boulders pretty well covered when it comes to ski movie premiers, foco on the other hand has been lacking. i encourage op to go for it. I support him as a foco resident, you should support him as a fellow nser, boulders only 1 hour away u can make the drive up here easily. neither town is a shit hole they each offer something unique and fun.

Another place u should think of is the lyric cinema cafe they let u take beer into the theater and its pretty small, so it wouldn't be as hard to fill as a venue like the aggie.

The aggie would be good. I work at CB&Potts, you could do it in the clubhouse there, we host some pretty fun event. Too bad beach house is gone because that's was a good one.

boulder is for snobby hippies that pay lots of money to dress like they dont have any, brag about not owning a TV, and drive range rovers because going all out hippy snob and driving a POS would sacrifice their safety.

Is that why CU has the highest acceptance rate among public schools in the nation?

I find it hard to complain about the front range after spending time this summer in Deer Trail and Ft.Morgan.
