Rikus is small- you might be able to stuff him in a carry on…
Reservation-Link

Click that link if you'd like a room at the Marriott (where the party is happening). $89 a night room rate for party goers... you can reserve as many or as few nights as you like during the TTHA event...
Will post it again periodically in this thread so it doesnt get lost in the pages..
and the Bos en Dal crew making the decision to have a booth at TTHA. They have been at/with TTHA since its inception and my guess is will continue to show there for the foreseeable future…Correct… TTHA replaced DSC at Kay Bailey (actually on the exact same dates)… so there is still a big show in town, still lots of vendors and exhibitors, etc..
The party was never about DSC or TTHA.. it’s a Bos en Dal Safaris party. The owner and his wife come into town in January to attend shows. They originally were here during DSC. When TTHA started coming to Dallas for a January show, they started coming to TTHA.
The first party was at a Weston hotel hospitality room fairly close to downtown. The next year we outgrew that venue so we moved it to my home.
While I have been very open and clear about my position on DSC moving to Atlanta, not moving the party to Atlanta had nothing to do with that. It had to do with the party venue (my home) doesn’t relocate easily
Now we’ve outgrown my house and are moving back to a hotel.. we could easily move to DSC/ATL.. but.. frankly the crowd at DSC doesn’t justify it… TTHA continues to grow with DSC remains in decline… and Bos en Dal is continuing to book at booth at TTHA… so keeping the party in Dallas just makes the best sense… also about 25-30 party attendees every year are local to DFW.. another 10-15 are from the rest of TX… so roughly 35 of the 60 we normally have attend are from about a 5 hour radius…
This year the headcount is already north of 75… I expect we’re going to get really close to 100 attendees… the split is actually starting to favor travelers from out of Texas now… but TX attendees remain a very high percentage of the party group…so I don’t see us moving it unless TTHA ends up vacating Dallas… if that happens, my guess is DSC would jump back into Dallas as fast as they could.. and it’s possible we’d remain in DFW… but the truth is.. the party will go wherever Bos en Dal goes..
Hey, being "Arm Candy" isn't the worst gig in town, Brother!I appreciate the kind words… but honestly, I have to give 90% of the credit to my wife… she’s who negotiated the deal with the hotel.. she always plans and prepares the menu.. does any/all decorating… etc… I pretty much stand around and drink whiskey while she slaves all night lol… she’s the real worker bee behind it all.. I’m just the Trophy Husband
