A classy idea and I’d love to see where Randy wants to hang…and hang it up.
Hawaii??? From PIP to HIP: From Party in Paradise to Hang (it up) in Paradise. I initially riffed with Retire in Paradise, but “RIP” didn’t really hit the tone that I thought that we would want to aim for.
Of course…Cleveland is nice too, and anywhere that this party was would be a paradise of, and for, FT-ers.

Good idea. Randy is a gentleman and his role in FlyerTalk is certainly deserving of what could turn into the biggest Do in the history of Dos!

I was thinking along Jailers lines and a PIP type event. the only drawback is it would probably limit the numbers but a PIP brought this site in (before my time) and a PIP would be neat to send him off
may I ask, why CLE? is he from there or something? isn't he in COS?
If a PIP is out of the question and I understand why; I would think a major hub like ORD might allow for the most flights out of the most cities but I'm just thinking out loud here
Another "thought" is a city like MSY where well.. lets just say its a fun city lol

Great! Cleveland or Parma in the winter - should be interesting for all. I'm in -
We don't know what we'll do without him but we're about to find out.
