    If you were handed a ticket tomorrow, would you go to evo in july.

    Simple question, yes or no answers.


    It's occurred to me , that we have no idea how many (or likely: little) people can/would actually go.

    I would if I had the money and a group was going

    Alone? Never, I personally wouldn't feel right

    Yes, I would be going if I had the holidays from work (although if I was handed a ticket, I'm sure I could find a way)...Unfortunately, my chances of being handed a ticket (however good bad they are) are dashed by being rostered this weekend too.


    Sure, aren't I lucky to have a job.....:rolleyes:

    🤪

    I'm not sure about that, I'm not a big fan of Julia Roberts.

    I'm definitely not paying to sleep with Richard Gere, either

    I would definately go but it would have to be a part of a big holiday.

    So in answer to your question, no.

    I'm kinda indifferent. I'd go but I would prefer Inferno's regular prize.

    I'd go, but it would take a good few laxatives for me to get that far in inferno.

    No, because I don't have the cash for staying in Vegas itself. I did read into it a little and the kind of money for hotels is a bit mad. That said, I was looking into Caesar Palace itself so definitely a pricey place.

    I would definitely go though if I had the money.

    Love to but I can't even make to the inferno event at this weekend.

    If I did, I'd have no issues going on my own. Traveled on my own before and had a blast.

    IF YOU THOUGHT CANNNES WAS GOOD, EVO IS AMAZING!

    When i went it was an amazing experience, ya all dont know what your missing!

    whoever does i go i will make sure they get hooked up in vegas, i will try to sort out free accomodation, am sure i could organise something for whoever does end up going.

    Also ryan hart is going and he might have room in his hotel, hes a good friend of mine and i am sure he wouldn`t mind taking care of whoever goes, i know whoever does go will have a wicked time with ryan, ryan knows everybody at evo and the trip is gauranteed to be amazing if your hanging out with ryan.

    He met quite a few of you guys in cannes and he thought you were all stand up guys. Hes mention you guys a few times and is interested in coming sometime.

    Anyway evo for the win!!

    id go in a heart beat, free flights to america, all these people yapping they cant afford accomodation, you planning on drinking warm milk in your hotel room all day.

    im sure theres hostels or backpacker style joints, plus casino floors are 24 hour, its not as if the weather will be cold and 2 mc donald meals a day isnt gonna cost much.

    it would be an experience, better than searching for ranked battles in your underwear.
