... I am also now confirmed 
getting in Thursday night and leaving Sunday mid-afternoon.
I was waiting for a 2nd Cat 1-4 FNA to drop so I could book the Hotel Kansas City
for the 5th-7th. They seem to be sold out on the 4th, so I'll be slumming it in a comp room at Harrah's the first night.
Please put me down for Friday dinner, and whatever on Saturday
Have not been to the TWA Museum, and I only made it to part of the WWI museum last time so might head back and finish that off.
Besides other stuff that's been mentioned, I will once again plug the Arabia Steamboat Museum if people are looking for something else to do...

I finally booked my flights to MCI; I'll be arriving around noon, but I might have a meeting that afternoon which could cause me to miss dinner 
If the group really hits 30 on Friday night, I could do something else for dinner. But I'm glad I'm finally for-sure going to this DO.
Now to figure out how to get home. Flights are stupid expensive to NYC so I'm looking at pass riding on Jet
or possibly Alaska Air via the west coast.

Seems my employer has a corp rate at the "21c Museum Hotel" that's a big saving over the public rate. Unless someone tells me it's a total dump--or I'm going to miss out on a great party at the Hyatt--I think I'll stay there.

Move me to confirmed. If anybody would like to the Boulevard Brewing tour or J Reiger Whiskey tour on Saturday afternoon, let me know! Both are very cool and great way to kill some time between BBQ spots.

21c is a great new hip hotel in KC. They also have great amenities and a good downtown location. Highly recommend!
