    Is that all 250 tickets sold now then?

    Honestly I was expecting this to be one of those things where everyone says they're going, then only about 30 tickets get sold, but looks like it's gonna be jammers that night.

    Ticket reserved thanks to Leggo.Its prolly been at least 4 or 5 years since I watched Mania live on a proper TV so Im looking forward to this.Plus Im off on the Monday anyway so it should be a beer sodden bit of craic.

    Major kudos to Leggo for all the effort he has put in too.

    Looks like i wont be making it up , think me and my friend are just gonna watch it in mine (and could'nt convince him to go to Dublin for it ) .

    Well it's close to Dandelions which is always brimming with Taxi's outside (though not sure what time that place closes, could be well before 4am).

    Anyways I don't think even the Garda would wanna mess with 250 drunk wrestling fans at 4am in the morning.

    249, remember, I'm not drinking. :P

    But maybe captains might have a number for a local firm that can be sorted out to pick you up.

    248, i'm not drinking either.

    esprimo where are you walking to? Bottom of Grafton next to Sweet Molly Malone there are always Taxis too. Though I have been stung a couple of times from there before, drivers going the wrong way, getting petrol and leaving the meter running (though this was only from non-Irish drivers).

    I'm staying in a place out by the Four Courts, I'll be grand to get out there.

    Is there any sort of internet access in Captain's? I just usually talk to a few Scottish and American friends during PPVs, I'd kinda like to be able to again.

    ^^^ maybe chat to the many boardsies or the 200 other wrestling fans there! Might prove to be difficult (and maybe a little rude) trying to hear with a headset around a lot of screaming fans! Wrestling fans are the nicest guys (in person) in the world i'm tellin ya :)

    Leggo, i have a scary collection of wrestling music if u need it for a mix? i could put together a solid 4-6 hours of the best stuff!

    Now when I worked in Captain's Blanch, they had free wireless but the signal was horrible...to the point we just didn't bother struggling through dial-up style speed and just did all of our online work before the night. Tbh I haven't tried it out in Grafton St. So I can't guarantee this. You could give them a buzz and find out either way though.

    Cheers man, just checked and I actually have 13 hours myself. I've a good idea of the layout of the DJ set now so I should be grand, but for the sake of getting a bit of pre-show chat going, can anyone think of any obscure, great WWE themes that I might have forgotten about?

    Just to get the talking going.. since there is classic WrestleMania matches, what would be your 5 matches you'd want to show?

    Mine would be:

    1. Undertaker v Shawn Michaels (WrestleMania 25) - Best Match Ever
    2. The Rock v Hulk Hogan (WrestleMania X-8) - Crowd Are Amazing
    3. TLC 2 (WrestleMania X-Seven) - Great To Watch In A Crowd
    4. Ric Flair v Shawn Michaels (WrestleMania 24) - What Emotion!
    5. Razor Ramon v Shawn Michaels (WrestleMania X) - Not Their Best Ladder Match But Epic None The Less
