I live very nearby, about 2 hours but the 120.00 ticket price put me off for the principal of it. I feel they make so much, that 75.00 would have been more appropriate, but I guess the expenses they are putting out is what caused the price to be so high.
I have to say though, its all a matter of how much you value your friends etc youve met as when I used to play Dragonrealms I paid 150.00 for a simucon ticket, and the airfair to Missouri and thought it was worth every dollar.
I havent forged those types of bonds yet in WOW
Us Dragonrealmers were a bunch of MUD freaks hehe.
But for those going and feel its worth it, Have a great time!!!
