I am going. Bought my tickets early, and bought for the suite along with the meet and greet.

That is awesome, I may try to go, not sure yet since that is still during the school year for me and not right next door to home! Will be cool to see a childhood favorite though....do you know if he is only signing during the meet and greet?

will be in vegas for a wedding, but would go if I was in town.

I think Pete lives in Vegas, that is ironic, he will be here, you will be there!

I would do the $100 package in a heartbeat YESTERDAY!! If I wasn't working, would be tempted to drive up there and do it. Go Kevin, let me know if you need some help, maybe you could get me an auto?? PM me

No I don't, sorry. He is the head coach of the Billings Mustangs now.

No worries my friend, I saw that, and figured he wouldnt be making it back to this area anytime soon!

Bumping this back up, tglg, did you end up going and meeting Pete? Would love to hear stories and see scans of any items you got, if possible!

Anyone else go? I couldnt make it that weekend, but would love to see if anyone else had any fun stories!

God Bless,
