TT: Going To The Inauguration

Transplanted Texan: I jjust got a call from the office of Rep. Paul Hodes (D-NH), my college congressman - I got inauguration tickets!!

Sisyphus: You bastard! I'm jealous. But as I understand it the tickets aren't that difficult thing. Its the lodging

Bent: TT, I had tickets lined up too, but I had to turn them back because I couldn't find a room. I was going to take my eighth grader, but I guess I really underestimated the historic nature of the event. The closest room I could find was in Tennessee ...Transplanted Texan: was a little worried about that at first, Bent, but the power of being a college kid majoring in Govt is I know many poor recent grads in DC, so will crash on a friend's floor for a few nights.

Question: Would you go to the inauguration if you have tickets and lodging?
