rjchamp3 #1 Posted May 1, 2008 I just got word there will be no CGE 2008, that sucks man I was lookng forward to this year damn. I was told they will return in 2009 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tempest #2 Posted May 1, 2008 I'm not surprised. Even if they were able to settle whatever their dispute was with the hotel, it's far too late to start getting something together now. Oh well, there's always next year. Tempest Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dan Iacovelli #6 Posted May 1, 2008 well, until I see it announced on the site or on DP, then I'll know. it doesn't effect me anyways, since I wasn't planning to return this year. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All I've heard is that the Riviera (I think) was quote "Still giving them heat" from last year. That's all that has been said. I have no idea as to what the nature of the problem is.

Dan Iacovelli #14 Posted May 3, 2008 just saw it on the site, so you were right about it be canceled, kepp the show in vegas, the duce is the best thing that happened to vegas 24hour pass for 5.00 from any where to strip or DT(plus you canuse it on the Cat buses too) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jsoper #15 Posted May 3, 2008 (edited) I'm not too surprised. Joe probably has more stress and less free time than ever because of the store. The toughest boss you'll ever have is the business you start so you won't have a boss. Edited May 3, 2008 by jsoper Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
homerwannabee #16 Posted May 3, 2008 (edited) I am not surprised. Joe kind of gave people the heads up a month ago and said it was very likely there would be no CGE this year. Hey think of it this way. With two years they really can do things right. Strange thing is I have never attended during an even year. I went 2003,2005, 2007, and now probably 2009.

phuzzed #17 Posted May 3, 2008 I bet the real reason the Riveria didn't want you guys back was because all of you were too damn rowdy last year Damn you Atari nerds! (of course, I'm joking). That's a shame, as I had definete plans of going this year as well. I haven't been to one yet, and hell or high water, I was going this year. Hopefully, they will be able to get something together next year Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mayhem #18 Posted May 4, 2008 Indeed, some of us were somewhat given the hint (from words discussed at the Midwest Classic) that it was likely that CGE wasn't going to happen this year sadly. But until it was officially announced, we couldn't say anything... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
