Let's go to the Ex!

Just got my VIP invite in the mail today, so need to get down there next week sometime to pick up my pass.

For anyone not on the list, I believe it is 4 hours play gets you a pass in to the EX and free parking once it officially opens.

Looking for someone to head down with me next week Wed/Thurs aft/Fri.

I may head down on Friday around 5 after woirk. Also got a VIP letter. Not sure what the difference is from a regular pass? I know one of the managers so I can avoid the wait list if he is working. I will find out his schedule for the week.

The difference is you can just pick up your pass with no play requirements.

There is only a limited number of VIP passes. If you go before the Ex opens and get one the pass will be good the entire time the CNE is open.

Have fun at the CNE!

CNE is a dump. I've seen horse barns with more class.
Don't even consider buying any of the "food" they offer. Bring something to eat.
Expect a wait worse than Fallsview. Bring something to read.
The dealers are awful (no offense BlondFish). Be careful that they don't push your pot to the wrong player.

The rake is 150% compared to Brantford on the 5/10. $7.50 vs $5

There is one redeeming quality of the CNE.

Fish.

The horrid players makes it all worthwhile.
