Some of the local dealers are still selling their left over 105th T-shirts, so I wouldn't hope for any freebies.
On an unrelated topic - We were just riding in Chicago yesterday. We're used to it, but if you're not, it can be a real pita. For those of you that are travelling through Chicago to get here - plan wisely. Rush hour is from 7-9:30 and 2:30 -7. 80/294 is your best bet for getting around traffic that can be horrific closer to downtown. I wouldn't plan on heading out Sunday at all if you need to get past Chicago. On any given Sunday the highway as far north as Gurnee can be at a stand still. Monday after 10 AM is your best bet.

FYI, No other way to say this but being blunt. We were one of the dozen or less white faces there and had an absolutely great time. Locals and black MC's were the majority of people.
I will go again this year.

Here's a question, I ordered my ticket on-line from the crooks at TicketMaster. It was a self print ticket. Then I see some postings about ticket packets with stuff like Poker Chips, etc. Am I missing out on that because of how I bought my ticket or will they be mailing me a packet anyway?

There will be a block party on that Friday night on north Avenue, I talked to the manager of Hooligan's Superbar over the weekend and he'd just left a meeting about that party, the blind Melons played that street party at the 105th he said.
