Save your money guys , and go any other time BUT the cup.
You'll have more fun and be able to stay longer.
I've been once and though I enjoyed myself, I wouldn’t do it again
Out of all the times I've been , I had a better time when the cup wasn't on.
I just can't but help think , the Cup is in place solely to rip off our American friends.

If it it is a ripoff why should the nationality of the people who are getting ripped off be important? It is a ripoff all the same.

Or maybe
Moby69 is joking?

A lot of Americans have very little time off from work, skipping silly American Thanksgiving and heading to Amsterdam, Cup or not is a brilliant idea!

Because like I was reminded its Americans who run it , and mainly Americans who pay through the nose to go.
When in reality they could go any other time and spend the same, but stay twice as long.
Or stay the same amount and spend half the amount.
Either way I'm just saying I didn't think it was all that.
The year I went it was packed , but I just thought it was a bit unmellow that's all.

lol

ps

just for the record !
I'm having a go at the Cup , not Americans.
I'm on their side.
They would have a more Dutch experience and get more for the $ going any other time.

last years cup was great....for me....got baked for free all day long at the expo.......but the full price is a bit much....the earlybird price is a bit more realistic

Yeah, you don't go to the Cup for the Dutch experience. Most Dutch couldn't give a fuck about the damn thing, except those making money off it. I had considered going to meet up with some peeps, but I can't afford it now. I think I'm due for a nice Mexico beach trip this year.

That's all cool. I understand what you are saying. I don't think anyone believes that you are having a go at the people who attend the cup.

Agreed: I do think that with all of the judging, voting and long hauls to thePowerzone, people who go to this year's cup will not get much of the "Dutch Experience" unless they stay before or after the cup.

Apologies for the semi-hijack of the thread.

I find Amsterdam to be fairly packed no matter what time of year it is. I'll be there in November before and after the cup, just not going to the cup. I'll be trying to get the Dutch Experience

By the way, Thanksgiving ain't silly; it's our god given right to over consume

Actually I've yet to go to CC, so I'm prolly not one to criticize.

who said anything about nuts but you are on the right track. point of the matter is get high, eat lots of food, fall asleep, wake up, repeat as needed oh and being with your family is in there somewhere, too.
