midwest racketboy members meet-up?

I really like the St. Louis option with my having family there, but my concern is that it might be too dangerous a city to hold something like this in.

ST. LOUIS HAS CRIME.

I had three of my uncles get jumped during Mardi Gras a few years ago. Apparently it's the worst crime city in the U.S. now.

No. 1: St. Louis, Mo.
Rankings in Crime (out of 400)
Assault: 4
Murder: 5
Rape: 32
Motor Vehicle Theft: 3
Robbery: 3
Burglary: 16

Try living in Detroit LOL!!! Btw I notice that there are a lot of members from Michigan...

I'd go -- especially if it was on a weekend!
Closer to Michigan, the better

Here's a list that I would probably be able to go to (in order of likelihood):

Rockford, IL
Quad Cities, IL/IA (preferably Davenport on the Iowa side)
Chicago, IL
Madison, WI
St. Louis, MO
Champaign-Urbana, IL
Peoria, IL

Some that are possible for me to go to, but very unlikely (again in order of likelihood):

Indianapolis, IN
Detroit, MI
Kansas City, MO

Anywhere near Chicago the better cause my car is a complete piece of shit. I guess I can always take a train somewhere.

alright, well, i'm gonna try and plan something for indianapolis this spring. if someone else wants to throw some effort into something else, let's go for it, but i can have a place, proper televisions/gaming systems and potential lodging if people wanna stay. so yeah! let's do it up hoosier style, apparently.

I can't promise an Indy meetup. Basically it would HAVE to happen over the summer or it definitely isn't going to happen for me, and even if it was over the summer I couldn't promise anything.

If it was Chicago over my spring break, or any of those other places during the summer, sure, I could do it. But Indy ain't an easy drive and I don't know anyone in the area.

there's always the megabus! if you plan well enough, the trip will cost you $1.
