Key West is OPEN!
 

Just checked all the webcams. Irish Kevins, Sloppy Joes, Ricks, Hogs Breath, Smokin' Tuna, Pier Bar, etc. all open with people enjoying themselves. Theres people in the pool at 24 N. Hotel too.

No races in November? Sucks but we're booked and ready to roll. Looking forward to seeing all the poker runners down there.

We will be there too....have a room at the Crowne with the roof top pool


I know this sounds bad. however i am looking forward to the parties, boating, and all without the races.

When all the hub-bub about the races being cancelled and everyone cancelling and getting nervous about going was going down, I talked to our group and we all decided screw it, KW is fun no matter what. Boats or no boats, if the city was open enough to drink and eat, we'd still be going. Even better that Stu / FPC is still committed to going so the environment, while a little different, will have the same feel and scene.

We're still planning to go.

I’ve always said most people that fo to Key West in November use the boat races as an excuse, We had boat races in Michigan city a hour away from my house and never went to them, but yet I get on a plane go to Key West for the boat races,lol
We will be there again this year no different than any other year and I don’t think not having boat races will change the mood at all, boat races have been lame the last 5-6years anyways

What are the dates that everyone is coming down?

Most of my crew will be down from Nov 8. We fly in on Nov 11.

I still avoid places with large crowds, no Vegas/Key West type places. I don't feel it would kill me but I don't like the stories of people getting blood clots/strokes/organ damage. Key West has never been a particularly "clean" place even without something like Covid.

I was at Marathon a couple of weeks ago. If you stepped out of your room, you were required to wear a mask. Sucked balls. I hope the restrictions are lifting before then

Still set to go. And agree the poker runners will make it "seem" normal.
Was searching a little this evening and came across this: list of updates
The Sept 11th one about 50% and seated service kind of scares me.
I don't want to have to be seated.
I've never really sat in any of the bars anyways, never really an open seat in the popular places. The other ones just stood and BS'd.
Hope bands are playing also.
