I have always stayed at the convention hotel and hope to do so in the future...but not in '04. I will be staying at Harrah's--my kid is coming and maybe a friend and they will not stay at the Riv. I too saw the cheaper prices but didn't find them for the convention dates. I'll pay a bit more at Harrah's but that's not the reason I won't stay at the Riv. I had a bad experience there years ago and will not return to stay. I'll find a lot of other ways to financially help out the Club.
