Im SURE the Bell Center will be going NUTS! Mario, you think it would be possible? Wasn't Reunion 2.0 you and me meeting in Halifax? This would then be Reunion 2.1. Actually I could not make that date - October 22 is the day after we leave for our Bermuda vacation. I'll be thinking of you all from the beach.............

Hmmm, i think you have a point there Nil d. And perhaps 2.1 would be more appropriate being it will be on the 21st

Its unfortunate you will not be able to make it, but im sure you will have a great time in Bermuda!

Actually a good date..not too close to Xmas (money wise) and good for travelling weather wise..count me and the Mrs in

Diehardhabsfan · Veteran Member

Count me in, the girlfriend may come ( she had never watched hockey before until this season, now she loves it and the habs)

hockeyman · Senior Member

Just let me know if Paris Hilton does really look that good in person.

Johab · Guru

So mario, what do you think? Should we set the date and start the plans now? Already seems like some people are interested and commited to coming. Plus, ill be bringing a Avs fan who we can all pick fun at

Sure, I am up for it. Would be great to get as many people as possible to join us.

I can probably make it, however I think I have class that finishes late on that day. I could walk from Concordia to the Bell Center, my car is usually parked next to there anyways lol.

Johab · Guru

Only thing Mario is it will be in October, Tickets will almost be IMPOSSIBLE to get. Especially for a group. Do you have any inside connections that can get us tickets? ANYWHERE in the building is fine with me.

Jay1982 · Guru

I love the Desjardins section btw

I might be able to get a group.

Those who are willing to come, what is your price range? $50? $50-$100. Over $100?

Jay1982 · Guru

over 100

MC Girl · Guru

Whatever it costs

If we are goin' all the way to Montreal.... why not????

100 buck range is fine Mario..with the amount of the Captain I will have in me I will not know ho whigh up I am anyways :)

habgirl · Guru

Gotta love Westjet! They fly Victoria to Montreal direct! Count me in for two. The $100 range is fine for me too Mario. And for those of you who live in Montreal, could you recommend a couple of hotels relatively close to the phone booth? Maybe I could start scouting something out early, as from what I can remember it's not easy to find something last-minute like.

I'll likely just be doing the Friday to Monday thing...and I will definitely be looking for directions from the airport to various places when the time comes closer...keep it simple though. I am terrible with directions! I get lost in my home town downtown on a regular basis.

Let us know how this progresses Mario! Sounds like a good time!

PM Mario habgirl He has already given me some "inside knowledge" in this area..... It’s always great to have a friend who has connections. He also knows the good bars/restaurants that are close enough to stagger back from afterwards....lol

Will do!!! yes plenty of hotels near The Bell Centre. As for driving directions, if you don;t plan to drive around the city, I would recommend you geta shuttle from the airport to your downtown hotel. I'll email you.

habgirl · Guru

Thanks Mario - I agree on the shuttle thing. I don't plan to do alot of driving around Montreal as I forget much of the city...

I'll wait for your email! Thanks again.

What a pity! Such a large gohabs.com group and I'm not able to join you in October. Most probably I'm gonna make a trip to Habland over New Year. Wish you much fun, and enjoy a beer or two on my behalf. GO HABS GO!!!

Johab · Guru

Wow, looks like i picked a REALLY good date for this reunion! Glad its got so much attention and people willing to come! Should make for a really great night!!

As for things to do in Hab Land Habgirl. If you get a hotel near the bell centre, You are minutes away from one of the best theme parks in Canada, and if your a thrill ride seeker, you definately will have to stop there. Umm, There are 2 prety good malls near by AAANNND theres this restaurant that has THE BEST Smoked MEat Sandwiches in the world! ..Unfortunately its killing me right now because i cant remember the name of it #$^$@@#%!$^

Jay1982 · Guru

Dunns famous

gfeaver · Veteran Member

Schwartz's is the best smoke Meat in the city.

I'm hoping my wife and i can come to the reunion. hopefully her relative in Montreal can watch them

Jay1982 · Guru

yeah, but its not next to the bell center

Zulrath · Senior Member

Haha you don't know how much i'm tempted to do this! You guys are killing me. But as a student I dunno if I can afford it.

norskipaul · Senior Member

I totally recommend the Fremont, it might be a little pricey, but it was good enough for John and Yoko, and needless to say good enough for me. I could actually see the Bell Centre from my window, so you really can't get much closer than that. It would have been great to actully meet you all, but, alas...

I'm saddened to hear you won't be making it out Norski, Nil d, Chris68 (& whomever else might not attend).... it won't be the same without ya

We'll take lots of pictures for you all.
