Ok, let me rephrase. Well, I can make it, I just don't want to drop $4K on a J seat, and I refuse to fly Y as this is non business travel. If there was a direct J seat on AE that I could redeem, I'd be there 
So I'll continue looking and pray. I'm also not risking a SDC lol. The Do gods will determine if I can make it...

Ken, I don't give a crap if the drinks are free or not. For me, this is a chance to meet other FTers in real life, a rare opportunity. Since I'll be driving I'm going to limit myself to one drink max anyways.
I assume that everyone attending is an adult, able to control themselves, and say that they've had enough. I also assume that we're experienced enough at life to recognize a snow job or high pressure tactics, and act accordingly if the sponsor has some nefarious purpose behind the open bar. I've certainly taken advantage of open bars at enough conferences and trade shows thanks to sponsors and vendors.
You're not even going anyways, why the concern?
I'm not concerned about any of these things. I'm just surprised that people aren't more curious about the missing, shadowy presence behind the scenes.

Maybe some are too distracted by the words "open bar"
I know others like a good mystery
And a few just like a mysterious open bar

I took into consideration - briefly - and decided I didn't care what was going on behind the scenes and look forward to meeting other people.
