Or not.
I hope they succeed, esp. as it's an historic establishment.

I'm going to give them a shot for sure. Not much else going on first day I'm planning on playing there, and on second day there's lower BI event at same time (same game) at GN, so if they don't have it together (enough capacity/runners), then I'll just head over there and play.
