They had to get this inside NYC. Take advantage of the tourism. There had to be somewhere.
South Street Seaport?
Jones Beach (worked brilliantly at Huntington)?
Shea or Yankee Stadiums?
Van Cortland Park?
Central Park?
Randal's Island?
They want TV deals and national press? Putting it in some obscure town that only your die-hards are going to attend isn't the way. Put it in the middle of somewhere where people are wandering through anyway.
Or am I making too big a deal out of this?
Your right when you say its probably not the best place if your trying to thrust PB into the spotlight but the raceways a pretty cool place to hold the event..Granted its not NYC but Mr.AckaBacaLoco said it best when he wondered if all you poor fools would really enjoy playing in NYC when ya gotta spend $200 a night on hotels,$10.00 just to eat lunch at Subway,and a whopping $9 for a beer at the better clubs
...You all would find something to bitch about..
The citys 30 minutes from Englishtown if you know where your going so it shouldnt put a damper if your only there to enjoy the nightlife..
Im just surprised they didnt get Eisenhower Park on Long Island..Plenty of grass,hotels,food joints,25 minutes from JFK or LaGuardia and Club Mirage right up the street for all you party animals though they are strict with children with fake Id's..But it is thier first year so ill give them some slack with growing pains..Its gotta be hard to find venues when your all the way over there across the sea...Maybe with enought time they can find better venues though Randalls Island would have been hella cool..
But look at the bright side..At least they wont need grandstands
