Looks like you picked the wrong day of the week to quit sniffing glue.

Puking in a subway, classy. Please tell me he had a suit on.

Respectable people puke in canals.

Hmmm... SPG promo period conflicts with my HHonors offer. They offered to re-up me for HH Gold if I complete four stays between May 1 & July 31. I guess another two years of HH Gold are more important than two free weekend nights.

More than likely he did have a suite on.

:D

It's kind of like the guy we saw on the train to ORD. He was clearly drunk and stayed on the Blue Line after it had pulled into airport, I wondered why, and as I looked over, he was passed out.

Same problem here but I will be taking the SPG deal. My offer from HH was a fast track to Diamond on seven stays or 15 nights between May 1 and July 31 and I could do that easily (ten nights would be on the books before the end of May), but unless I get some input to the contrary around here, I will not change my stay habits.

I've only done it once, but it was at the end of the night, and I made it in to all three trash cans on the platform. :cool:

Apparently I was also begging my wife (gf at the time) to just leave me on the train to sleep it off. :eek:

I wish HH would extend the same offer until July 31. I need 3 more stays by the end of May to get the gold in the offer. Not going to happen :(

Back in January they offered me six stays by the end of April to retain Gold, and I didn't bite, as I wanted the SPG night after night promo more. 4 stays between May 1 and July 31 seems very reasonable for keeping HH Gold until 04/11. I already had planned to use Hilton for two stays in MSY for The Significant Otter's graduation (as I wanted to pad my BA balance with double-dip). Just need to squeeze in two more before the end of July. Will probably just do a mattress run here in town and not even bother staying at the hotels.

HH has these offers all the time. They are nothing new or out of the ordinary.

I love Starpicks rates. Just shaved several $100 off the cost of my stays this weekend in TPA & ONT.

That's what I love about them. HH is an excellent back-up program to SPG, and I'm perfectly content with the Gold benefits. No way would I aim for 16 stays to retain it, but I'll definitely spring for 4.
