Anyone attending Big 12 tournament?
« on: February 13, 2014, 11:00:50 AM »
Hey everyone!

I hope I can be a help to the Wildcats (especially after your big win against KU)!  My wedding is the same weekend as the Big 12 Tournament in KC and I have some extra rooms in my room block at the hotel.  We are at the Westin in Crown Center and our group rate is currently $125 a night.  You can get a room with two full size beds to hold four people or one king size to hold two people.  The hotel offers a shuttle service, but it's located pretty close to the Sprint Center.  Rooms will be available from March 11-18, so you can stay all week if you need to!  Here's a link to the hotel website if you just want to look at the location, rooms, etc.: http://www.westincrowncenterkansascity.com/

If anyone is interested or has any friends or family traveling in from out of town who might want to a room or two, please let me know!  I'll post a link if enough people are interested, or you can directly message me and I'll send it out that way.  I have a lot of K-State fans very near and dear to my heart, so I hope this helps someone out!

Looks like yes!:

Pet Policy
The hotel accepts dogs that weigh less than 40 pounds for no additional charge. Guests with dogs over this weight limit are billed a one-time, non-refundable fee of $50 per stay. Upon arrival, we'll offer you a Westin Heavenly Dog Bed and a welcome amenity with information and supplies for your pet. Guests with dogs will be required to sign a damage waiver upon check-in.

Here's the link to that: http://www.starwoodhotels.com/westin/property/overview/announcements.html?propertyID=1039

Guys, you can do that or just stay at my place downtown for free. I'll probably stay at my girlfriends that week, so you guys can do whatever you want. Just make sure to clean up after yourselves. #1cat

alright, counter-offer:

I wont go to the wedding, at all. trust me, you don't want me there. ill stay one night in the hotel and give you a gift off the registry IF you give me 2 tickets to Friday nights games for $50 a piece.

thoughts?
I think what my friend Mitch is trying to say is that true love is blind.

As far as I can tell from the website.  If you'd like, I can contact the hotel and ask about cats, snakes, hamsters, etc. etc.!

Yep, or I can find two tickets for less than $50 and get them for you. ;)

No, he's a dog.  I just don't like Trooper mixing with other types of animals.  Please confirm this place is dogs only.

You could probably live in the wedding hotel Dylan-style for like a year for free.

I believe you!  My dad also has that sort of deal but I'm not enough of a world traveler to build up the points.

If sd and his ferret are there, Trooper and I are out.

No disrespect to sd; it's more about the ferret.

Aww, ferrets are all right.  But no ferrets allowed at the hotel.

Hey all,

I'm going to hop off for just a bit, but I'll be back on in an hour or so!  Please feel free to PM or email me if you'd like a link to sign up for a room and get our group rate!  We are more than happy to give rooms to your friends and family as well.  You could have a block of purple there!  Also, some rowdy wedding guests, so we'll probably all get along. :)
