I would be interested, I'm going to be in Indy on Thursday visiting college friends. In another thread we basically started a when I was young anime was.. discussion which I quite enjoyed. So I would purpose the "When I Was Young Anime Was.." unofficial panel at the Hyatt bar sometime after lunch time on Friday. That should make it so any of us travelers have time to get in, and plenty of time after.

Ooh good, I'm glad there's a few that is interested. I'm thinking Thursday or Friday night may be the best day, though maybe late? Like 10/11ish? Any preferences, ideas, etc?

I'm totally down for this. I was pretty much alone at the Hyatt bar last year (My one friend doesn't drink and my gf doesn't that much.) I'm planning on going to the meet and greet so if it was Thursday, I'd want it to be later, but if it's on Friday I think anytime is fine.

A poll would be good to get a date and time.

Sometime Friday would be better for me since I there's things outside of my Acen life I need to take care of Thursday night and I don't plan on showing up till mid morning Friday.

You can pick any of the hotel bars, and Gibson's steakhouse also has a bar.

One of the hotel bars would probably be a better bet, since no one would have to worry about who is the designated drivers.

Well, Gibsons is just right across the street, so no drivers needed... but I thought they were hella expensive. <_<

Gibson's bar should charge the same as all the hotel bars. What I like about Gibson's is their bar stays open longer than the two in the Hyatt. I believe Gibson's bar is the hotel bar for the Embassy.

I say that the best place to meet would be the Hyatt bar. That way we can know everyone that is there is 21 and up and hopefully won't have too many minors around to bother us. Let alone, I'm staying in the Hyatt, so it's easy for me to get to.

I agree! If it's outside the hotel I might not wanna come.

Alright, it will have to be later then 10 pm on Friday, because of a late photoshoot that I have scheduled. No one objects to having it at midnight?

I think Friday at midnight at the Hyatt bar is a good choice. I'll probably need to take a break from the other programming going on at that point anyway, or need a drink. One or the other.

Thanks for that reminder! If you guys want to come earlier, you're welcome to. I just want to make sure to have time before/after my photoshoot to get to the meetup.
