Thank you Event USA and in particular Amy Flores.The Bear Cubs (14-9, 5-5) hosted the Vikings (5-15, 2-6) of Diablo Valley College, who only have five active players left on their roster. If only the Packer team we were hoping for had made the trip. The accommodations and the tail gate were fabulous. We went to Jacksonville and had a great time. It was getting late at that point and I was wondering if she would be able to pull off setting up a package in Jacksonville. Then finally the move to Jacksonville and continued communication from Amy on our interest. In steps Amy, wondering if we would be interested in Dallas if the game was moved there and a package was set up. After itinerary and info was emailed to us, it soon became apparent that the trip to New Orleans wouldn’t happen. I initially called and talked with Amy about some questions I had and booked our trip. My son who lives in Charleston, SC and myself who lives in Minnesota, decided we needed to do a guys trip and decided to go through your company to see the opener in New Orleans. We have used you before and always were very pleased with the packages you have set up and your service. "I want to thank Event USA and in particular Amy Flores for the Jacksonville trip. I'm glad that you are working for Event USA. Pre-COVID, I always went to the Varsity when the Packers games weren't televised locally - lots of Wisconsin natives there, too + they serve brats and sauerkraut during Packers games. Petersburg, Florida (my home county) and were able to tell them about the Varsity Club tavern and Packers bar in Clearwater where Mark Murphy's mother is in attendance - very nice lady whose retirement home is in Clearwater, which borders my little city of Dunedin. One of the best aspects of this weekend was interacting with so many people from Wisconsin and learning their personal stories of things Packers. So, thank you! You may be speaking with me in November if I can work out getting up to Green Bay for a game. Good thing that I got in a 30-minute run along the river in the morning. The servers just kept on bringing out different sliders and desserts. The tailgate party at the fancy restaurant in the hotel was fabulous. Lots of Packers fans in the club lounge and overall at the stadium. Access to the air conditioned club lounge was great. ![]() "Good Morning, Nicole - Everything you did turned out great. ![]()
