I will be there on sunday 19th until wednesday 22nd! (leaving in evening). So 3.5 days, I think that is a record (last year 3 full days).

Great! I will see what tents we can get into. Dinner is quite difficult especially the augustiner.

I don’t really mind which tent, but prefer evening reservations. For the afternoon it is easy to get in a tent anyway, so we can check out different tents in the afternoon, and use a reservation in the evening.

Is it that hard even on mondays/ tuesdays?

I have faxed Paulaner and Augustiner so far… haven’t heard back.

HB and Hacker are fun too in the evening!

HB we can just go in the pigpen anytime. I will try Hacker.

Middle of March they will have an online form… http://www.hacker-fe… Let’s check everyday until it goes live.

I guess no chance for the evenings!

“An den Abenden und an den Wochenenden, können wir leider keinerlei
Reservierungen in Aussicht stellen. “

I will try the Hippo also: http://www.hippodrom…

@Sunskin: didn’t you know one of these tent owners??

My co-worker is bring along some of his Austrian friends.

Bring some nice austrian girls as well

BigFoot: That should suffice… Especially if you do like the real beer drinker (myself, Chris, etc.) usually do… Take advantage of the free hotel breakfast, just have a 2 EUR Brezen for lunch, then only spend money on a decent dinner each day. That will leave you about 90 EUR a day for bier, etc/…

CW: Your Boss Man coming up again???

It’s middle of march now… but no system online yet

Yeah I know I have been checking everyday when I get into work. Hippo has changed their page from the middle of March to the beginning of April. I will probably book a table of 10 and 6 together for the 21st at 4pm.

How many collegues from Austria will you bring?

Monday evening would be fine as well I guess….

Just one collegue. But he is bringing 9 friends. I will talk to him next week, they might actually do there own thing not sure yet.

Hacker’s online form just went live.

very good, so you will book it on there?

Yes we are trying to get two tables of 10 for 12:00-5:45pm on 9/20.

ok I also put tuesday 9/21 as an alternative.

They said they will get back to me in the next 6 weeks to make the reservation final.

Hacker is confirmed for 20 people on 9/20 from 12-5ish pm. I will work on happy hippo hour for 9/21 now.

that’s good news!

what about your friend the architect. Do you think he can book the BMW tour thing for us or should I go ahead and go thru the normal booking procedure?

Das Hacker-Pschorr Zelt ist Schone!

He has said he wants to go and can look into the tour thing, however his first baby is due in May and he is quite busy so I doubt he will be doing much planning for now.

Otherwise unless he comes, I would probably skip the tour since I am only there for a couple days, my hangover will be to great to walk around being interested in cars. I will ask him again in June.

Anyway, you have now this tent reservation for the tuesday as well!

BTW congratulations with your daughter, she is looking gorgeous! I suppose she’s a little too young to bring to the wiesn’

We have the one at Hacker for Monday. I put in the same request at Hippo for Monday or Tuesday but still waiting.

Vaddy guut werk Grasshoppa!
