Default AMD XXP Tour stop in Denver

OK Guys, I don't know how many of you made it to these. I know Joe went but I don't know who else. Anyway, the tour is gonna be in Denver tomorrow and I want to go. I was wondering, how long does it last? I need to be at work at 9:00am, will I make it in time? What are my odds in winning? Are they still giving out 200, or 50 MoBo + XP combo's? Anyone have the link to the contest?

Last I heard, it was 50 per stop, but that's hearsay combined with my bad memory.

Here's the url: http://www.xppcentral.com

Thanks Brians. I'm wndering if it's even going to be worth it tomorrow. Still, I don't think I could live with myself if I didn't try.

Does anyone know the specs of the stuff I probably won't win? I like to torture myself.

Oh well wasted 2 hours of sleep for nothing. Though it was pretty funny to see some of the people who came out for it

I got there at 5:45 and got my ticket. About 6:10 they kicked it off. They called the 50 boxes 5 at a time to stretch it out. I think I was out of there about 7:30-7:45.

Thanks, I'm trying to decide if I'm gonna make a go at it in Raleigh or Baltimore.
Will see, guess it depends on the timing.

I just moved here in May and I love it. There's nothing like having the Rocky mountians in your back yard. I just can't wait to start riding season

I was at giveaway in Denver. Where were you standing on the side where the winners went or the other side. That sucked how long it took for them to draw only fifty people. Oh yeah did you at least get a T-shirt or coffe mug?

No I got nothing, they were being very skimpy with the shirts. I was about smack dab in the middle, but pretty far back.
