can any of you guys do weeknights? if so, Mohegan does a cruise night on wednesdays on the roof of one of the garages... Typically its 1975 and older.. but i have connections with the organizers, and if you guys are serious I can possibly get a special "evo section" one night..

i can definitely do weekdays. i live exactly 3.1 miles from my parking spot at my house, to a parking spot on the garage roof. i measured it one day... lol. bein that close is dangerous.

how many of you guys could actually make it during the week though? i would be willing to skip class to go...

It is relatively unlikely I could make it on a weekend night. It is about 65 miles from home, and The Google tells me it is about 70 minutes each way with ideal traffic conditions.

Additionally only half of my weekend days are free for May when you factor in AutoX. If it is assumed that Memorial Day weekend is out, then I am down to like 3 days.

I would love to meet up, but my schedule is more difficult than most to work around.

so who was at Mohegan last night? In the winter garage, a silver Evo8 w/ Tein sticker on the rear windows, upgraded FMIC, and Shocker sticker on the windshield. I was there for the MMA fights.

How were those fights?
I was shocked to see Roger Huerta left the UFC and is fighting in Bellator. I honestly think the fighters in this are better than Strikeforce IMO.

They weren't bad... There were 8 fights on the card. We got there at the start of the 2nd fight.. That one was ok.. went 3 rounds, lots of on the ground wrestling. 3rd fight was about 40 seconds.. 4th was about 2 mins... both by submission.. 5th fight was BADASS, as was the 6th. Full 3 rounds, blow by blow.

Fight of the night right there... HUGE upset though... People (including myself) were PISSED at the outcome..
