Hollydays...

A friend and I want to go tomorrow night but someone told me the tickets for tomorrow night are 65 buckaroos?!? I just checked the website and saw there was some tailgating event going on that is 20 dollars to get in but I thought somewhere it said general admission is 10 or 11 dollars? Anyone know what the deal is with Hollydays for tomorrow night?

  • Thank you so much Nikki! I'm so excited to go now that I know it's not that expensive to get in..

  • The Wednesday night is sorta a big to do. Everyone dresses up and there is an auction, they get sh!t faced, etc. It's nice because there aren't the large crowds.

    Yes.  But I effing can't.

    I actually was going to go to Hollydays on Sat but I'm worried I'll end up buying stuff for me & N instead of Christmas shopping for others.

    Well, I don't see my husband all week long and Fri is his day off so I feel bad leaving him for the night after he's been with N all day long.  And we have some friends coming to town for the football game and they are talking like they want to get together on Friday.

    Believe me, I'm sadder than you are about it.

    Your mom or N?  Lol, that's very gracious of you to pimp your mom out for sitting services but since I've never met her and N has no idea who she is, I'm leaning towards no.
