I got my ticket!

PS: If that Brian Powell guy says I'm paying for his ticket, he's a dirty rotten filthy stinkin' liar!

[JackDunaway]

Count me in - ticket bought! This was certainly the highlight of NIWeek 2011 last year. Can't wait to hear more of Poet Laureate Nattinger's limericks and Admiral AQ's sea songs

The LAVA BBQ is a great part of NI Week. I just bought my ticket!

[dtucker]

Bought my ticket!

[crelf]

...and the famous LAVA T-Shirts are available. The only difference to last year's design is that we've removed any reference to a particular year of NI-Week, so you don't have to buy one every year

So check it out in the LAVAStore (and why not grab yourself some other fine LAVA related products? )

I would love to come, but I have to bring my wife and kids to NI week this year since her 40th birthday is at this day, but maybe I can tell her that I've booked dinner at a nice romantic Texas BBQ restaurant. Anybody else taking their families to NI-week this year?

LAVA BBQ is a great place for the LV Community to help your wife to celebrate her 30th birthday!

[Norm Kirchner]

Just bought mine.
If you don't buy yours, you are missing on the chance possibly win a free flight around Austin.

Can't wait to hear more of Poet Laureate Nattinger's limericks...

Oh man, my creative juices are spent after writing (and memorizing) those limericks last year.

Please...don't make me do it again! (insert preemptive TWSS here)

[xtal]

I'm in!! Can't wait to see y'all again!

[kugr]

Perhaps another Pedicab race? Those poor bastards last year - such heat and Justin had his whip out.

See you there!

Got the news that I'm being sent to my first NI week! I'll be there walking around clueless so someone save me from myself.

I haven't been to LAVAG in a while... I just thought the best way to get back was to get my ticket!
See you there,

So no contest this year?

BTW, can you make the same cool LAVA tshirt available for ladies?

Thanks,

LAVA BBQ is a great place for the LV Community to help your wife to celebrate her 30th birthday!

And it's an even better place to celebrate her 29th birthday!

Please...don't make me do it again! (insert preemptive TWSS here)

There's at least 2 TWSSs there.

[crelf]

BTW, can you make the same cool LAVA tshirt available for ladies?

The ladies fitted tee is now available in the LAVAStore!

Note: This is the same t-shirt style we used a couple of years ago, and several of our members said the size chart was skewed - make sure you order a size that larger than what you would normally order (not that I'm trying to suggest anything by that! )

[Christina Rogers]

Bought my ticket! Party party party!

[John Lokanis]

Me too! See you all there!

[CRoebuck]

I just bought mine ! !

Can't wait

[JodyK]

I'll be there. Xtal says I missed out in the past...
