    OK, my daughter is a teacher too and and she can get time off, so you just need to apply yourself to the problem, start early (like now) and get yourself to MOTD. If all else fails we can arrange for the MINI Hit Squad to kidnap you. :Thumbsup:

    There in lies the biggest advantage of the team. Add the M/A Bowling Shirt to that outfit and even if a cop stopped us during the get away, there is no way he would show up in the same court room and admit it. :lol::lol:

    My 11 year old and I attended AMVIV last year and had a blast. We did not even have a MINI (mine was on order)

    This year will be even better. Planning on some trips and the strip run with 300 MINI's. White Roof Radio guys were there last year and I am sure they will be there this year. Fun, Fun, Fun......

    We are going to Vegas for Christmas. I know, sound weird but we have a timeshare and I want to see the Christmas decorations in the casinos. They go all out....:Thumbsup:

    Dang, I can't imagine Christmas lights trying to outshine an already light-laden, flashy casino! You gotta take and share some pics.

    I've done All of them. And honestly I like each one. You can't compare cause they each have a different feel, and different owners.

    I was at dinner on Fri night:D, but it's nice to have a MINI event I don't have to work at.

    I've only been to AMVIV (3 times). The other two are on the other end of the country. Wished I could get there but unfortunately, life throws other priorities in front of me.
