If someone is still keeping count I will be there also.  I'll be bringing one or two non-QJ posters with me also.

I would second the vote for Great Dane Brew Pub over Badger Bowl any day, any time.  Having lived in Madison, I speak from experience.

I lived in Madison for three years and have visited there many times, it is one of my favorite places to go. Unforunatly I have never been to the canoecopia, but it looks like a lot of fun.

The Badger bowl is an interesting choice for lunch, it is close and should be enjoyable. If you are planning on spending anytime in Madison you need to visit the Essen Haus for dinner and music or at least beer and music. It is a great mix of people especially if you stick around for the music.

also try a meal at the Great Dane brew pub, it is just off the capital square and has a great menu along with great beer.

Enjoy your trip.....you have me thinking of excuses to come up and visit.

I just made my hotel reservations, rooms are going fast. 

next week we should confirm who will be at the badger bowl so we can warn them.   Wink

Next year maybe we will have enough momemtum to take the lunch up a notch. 

A big thanks to QP for being point man on this, so if something isn't right we can point at him and say ...

it's your fault.   Wink  just kidding qp

I don't think there is anything special about the Badger Bowl except that it is within easy walking distance of 'Copia, so we can avoid re-parking, etc..  "Kicking it up a notch" in the future is probably a good idea.

I thought we were headed to Badger Bowl this year because that new hot band, "QP & the Voyageurs" is doing a gig there that afternoon??

Of course, if "PJ & the Pipers" are in town, we should have the Badger Bowl pretty much to ourselves....

Jimbo   Cool

The 'Bowl is (kinda) a pit, but as Jimbo has pointed out, it has one huge advantage: location.

My suggestion from last year never gained traction (for good reason); tailgate in the Alliant parking lot, sampling fine Wisconsin brew, Old Wisconsin sausages, and Cache Bay fry breads.

I'm sure you guys will have a good time at the 'Bowl.

I am anti-social; attending Copia but not lunch.

Bon Apetit,

The Beaver

The Beaver, I thought it was a great idea, but a bit harder to organize. 
I floated the idea by the people that run the Alliant place and the did not really say yes, they did not say no, but they have an agreement with the concessionair that they are the only ones to cater an event on the property. 
That being said, we could informally have a tail gate but if it got too big or too organized...I am not sure. 
I think organizing something off site is the way to go at least for now.  I do not want to open a can of worms here but if QJ was behind the event and it was not done through proper chanels then.... and we do not need any headachs.  It sounds so simple but with buracracy (sic) there is always something.
Maybe when we are there we could talk to them again, along with the Copia organizers and see if we can come up with something.  If I remember kingfisher said he may donate a few walleye fillets to the kettle. Wink
