Only a true sadist could ever design such a contest, RB. wink


10 minutes until the moment of truth... I eagerly await any 11th hour surprise voters.

:strangle:

First off, my sincere thanks for everyone who participated in this poll. The large turnout was well above any thing I expected and really shows that there is a large amount of support for this idea.


So... let's cut right to the chase... in reverse order the results are:


Austin, TX - 5 points
Florida Keys - 5 points
Myrtle Beach, SC - 7 points
Charlotte, NC - 8 points
Orlando, FL - 12 points
Washington, DC - 12 points
Boston - 14 points
Memphis, TN - 16 points
NYC - 17 points


and with a final day surge for 19 points... the location of the 2013 Legion World Gathering is...

Great city, cheap & easy to get to, equally close to just about everyone...this was the best choice.

I think quite a few people are going to feel the same, Dev.

Though it wasn't my first choice (I actually gave my first place vote to Myrtle Beach... and was the only one who did so!) I do love Chicago.

It is a fantastic city with sooooo much to do. I spent five days there with Mrs. Nihil once, and came away wishing I had more time.

As Cobie mentions on the previous page, Chicago being a hub airport really opens the doors for a lot of discount airfares and the possibility that quite a few folks who couldn't get to one of the more remote sites, might now be able to make it.


Now we just need to figure out when. smile

...and if (I really should be able to, if even for a day) make it, I can bring Suddenly Seymour with me. Kicking and screaming if need be. wink

Also, it lends itself well to some kind of pre-meet up LW musical parody event based on a Prohibition-era LW...

I am but a simple country boy, fearful of and unused to big-city ways.

cool! Chicago is one of those places I've never spent a ton of time, but would like to know better.

We just need to come up with a clever alias, such that the locals wouldn't notice Lash's simple country nature and just assume that he's lived there his whole life.

Perhaps...

It's about a 9 hour drive from here to Chicago. Do-able but I insist on a riding partner!!!

I haven't made such a long trip since the Dallas get-together (a 7+ hour drive I made alone).

Now, if you at least shoehorn in some Gene Kelly songs...we'd be alright for a while.
