Hailfire: That was you guys?! :mad: (j/k) Katie totally freaked out and claimed she heard a mouse :D Just watch, we'll get you at the next competition...:)

ok... there's an entire thread dedicated to the radisson astrodome.... i know chief delphi and us contacted the corporate offices on them.... it was seriously a major health hazard: my roomate and i have terrible allergies and there was about 1/8 in . of mold in the vents, not to mention the super-sized roaches that we decided to catch and send to the corprate offices to show what we were finding in our rooms. we slept with bandannas (more mad love to wildstang and autodesk) over our faces and with the lights on.... terrible i tell you, not to mention the nasty as all... yeah.. service and water and food and COLD tub, but we were throwing all our team into the pool the last night even though we probably could have gone fishing in it. (cybersonics- you guys rock for helping us!) the elevators sucked, there were spiders in our bed, stucco falling on us, stains everywhere, and the only way we were able to tolerate the smell was with the air freshener our team always brings as a joke for the guys rooms after they do their business. so yeah.... radisson astrodome sucked some major big ones.

Ouch! Thanks for the tip, note never stay at the Radisson Inn Astrodome :D

I thought that that wierd place across the street from our hotel with the big sign written in blood-like texture labeled "PHOBIA" was wierd. I swear that was some kind of drug trafficing center. The place really gave me the chills.

Oh on an unrelated note, the Detroit Red Wings were just sweeped 4-0 by the Mighty Ducks. YAY!! :D

We were staying at the doubletree in sacramento, and we were all like "It's the doubletree, right? so it's gonna be really nice, right? so it'd better have a gym, RIGHT?"

we got there, and we got to the "exercise room" and it was basically an enclosed area, with LOTS of towels, a couple treadmills, and ONE weight machine.

some exercise room.

we didn't bother to check the pool. though i assume it would have been filled ;)

we stayed at best western, which wasn't bad. but the elevator there is without a doubt the slowest one on the planet.

Which Best Western??? Greenway???

nuh-uh!!!! you weren't @ radisson astrodome!! that thing was very very very slow, and made loud THUNK noises!! terrifying.

D.J., trust me, they couldn't pay me enough money to get me to stay there again. If by some rare chance 71 waits til the last minute next year and has to, i'll get my mom to get me to stay with her (because i'd drag her to houston) at another hotel.

I'm still trying to figure out what was in the mystery safe that was in our room. I wanted to use it to keep all of our kids money and tickets but they didn't have a key and when I asked for one they took it out of our room so it wouldn't bother me any longer.:rolleyes:

We were supposed to have like 12 rooms reserved for the team... there are over 30 of us... but the manager only reserved 8, so our head mentor had to pay for his own room...somewhere around $200 for the two nights. Then, there was another all boy team there from North Dakota and no offense to those North Dakotan Cuties, but they weren't exactly on their best behavior...Everything they did that was mischeivous...my team got blamed for!! (That manager had it out for us from the start!) Then horror of all horrors...a few of us were being kinda loud in our room and at about 1 a.m. one of the mentors from their team (they were in the room next to us) came and just barged in to our room without permission and threatened to go to the manager if we didn't shut up!! She must have been almost 50... AND SHE WAS BARELY DRESSED!! oh it was bad!! I pray no one else ever has to see that... But hey, the water was clear and the pool worked so it wasn't all bad;)

I remeber that lady. You guys were in our room. She was really creepy! She walked in after Armin and Jason were wrestling,LOL, and they kicked David in the crotch and he screamed. That was so funny. Poor David. LOL
