From time to time I have this habit of missing a word whenever i type sentences. I dunno why.

Check my posts i seem to be missing 1 word every now and then.

was there last year
will go this year (well, 90%)
dunno what tix are but probably same as last year (1/2/500 for normal/floor/VIP tickets)
accomodation wasn't cheap for me last year, i think my share ran $125 splitting a room 5 ways lol, this year i'm prolly staying with friends at an airbnb (booked about 2 hours after the dates announcement ROFL) so cheap. Food at the venue is expensive and questionable, although last year there was a food festival in essentially teh same place (basically millions of food trucks within near walking distance) but that wasn't exactly cheap either.

all figures USD.

I was within walking distance of the event and basically walked everywhere (the event is downtown). I regret not going more places and skipping some shit games tbh, but where we stayed was definitely walkable to pretty much everywhere worth going (although we drove so had a car, it just never got used all 5 days). Food costs are obviously what you make them, we didn't go crazy, bought booze at a supermarket and drank at the hotel instead of bars, etc. Still certainly wasn't cheap food (bottomless popcorn at the arena was abused, but expensive nonetheless rofl).

Yes was like 125 for 5 days but only cuz we split 5 ways right. so i might budget more. Or else u might need to take transit to get to the venue.

If you fly in you need a way to get to your accomodations which prolly won't be cheap, dunno what bus/rail transit costs and options are although there's a station pretty near the arena.

Ticketmaster scum you with fees on the tickets so expect to pay more than $100.

dunno, $500 seems doable but not really "safe" to budget imo.

no its exactly a full day of driving. 4 guys in the car, although only 2 ever drove LOL (one idiot didn't have a license, the other wasn't trusted with the car, so me and the owner drove rofl)
