Road Trip Anyone?
Even if you don't live in NC, we'd love for you to road trip into town for the event. Yours Truly is helping out as Rhett&Link's e-vent planner.

Hotel Information I've reserved a block of rooms at a nearby Hampton Inn for a discounted rate of $72/night plus 12.75% tax. All the rooms will be non-smoking and will have 2 double beds. A block of rooms is being held until August 14, when online ticket sales end, as well, so BOOK NOW! Call 919-233-1798 and be sure to say you're coming in for "Rhett and Link," when you reserve in order to get this special rate.

Please WEIGH IN HERE as soon as you know your plans so I can contact you directly. I will be coordinating the room block and need to provide the hotel with ongoing updates on how many rooms need to be in the block...plus I may have other things I need to communicate to you. This discussion will be updated as more information becomes available, so be sure you've elected to "follow" it for regular email updates or check back frequently.

Please comment below when your plans are firm with this information:

You are definitely traveling into town to attend this event and need a room.
How many are in your party?
How many rooms do you need?
Hoe many beds in each room?
How many nights will you be staying (which nights?)

If you've already commented, I need a firm count as soon as possible. so, go ahead and post again confirming.

You may, of course, stay at any hotel you wish, but I'll only be negotiating a discounted room block with one. Still, if you're traveling from out of town, Rhett and Link have a special treat in store for you! To acknowledge those intrepid kommunity members who went to such lengths to be with us that night, the guys will stop by the Hampton Inn at midnight to spend a few minutes hanging in the lobby with you! If you've chosen another hotel, you can still join us, there if you like.

Thanks!

Yes! A friend and I are road-tripping from Florida up to see you guys! So far, there are only two of us, possibly more if they get interested in coming. Right now we'll only need one room, and as far as I know we'll only need a room Saturday night. A Days Inn is totally cool :) Thanks for helping out with that! So yes! Definitely count us in!

The Days Inn is not listed in the top 15 Cary Hotels on tripadvisor.com. Without sounding pretentious, there are hotels on the list available for between $75-100.00. They might be worth checking out.

Yes, you are welcome to stay in any hotel you like, but the guys asked me to get an inexpensive place so the majority of travelers can afford it. There are many hotels nearby, but I'm going with Rhett & Link's suggestion we keep costs low for the group.

Hey Everybody:
I'm also talking with a Hampton Inn & Suites close by. It's a MUCH nicer hotel with a cozy fireplace-appointed lobby for hanging out as a group if you like. The best rate I could negotiate there is $72/night. There are suites (2 double beds and a pull-out sofa) available for $109. I'd appreciate a sense from those of you who are fairly sure you're coming whether you'd prefer the better hotel and can handle the higher rate. What say you?

I'm still holding out for a space on Rhett or Link's couch :)

LOL. Keep dreaming.

Yes, I'm pretty sure we can handle the higher rate. Oh, and now I'm 100% sure that I'm coming. Already got the tickets and everything. :)

Yeah that would be completely fine with me. Actually I would say it is preferable. :)

Just FYI, I got a suite at Holiday Inn Express and Suites for $91.00. Also, I have friends coming who need to bring their dog. La Quinta allows pets.

Yep...I'm talking with the 2 local Holiday Inns, too. Will be updating shortly!

I don't think I'll be able to handle the higher rate, Lynn....

:(....

Not sure what the hotel plan is yet. I may be getting one on my own. I will let you know.
