Dublin bus to UFC 72?

    Is anyone interested in sorting out a mini-bus or coach to the Odyssey for UFC 72?
    I figure, if enough people are heading up and enough people are interested, it would be cheaper and a lot less hassle then taking a train back and forth.

    Can’t openly drink Dutch gold on a train after all :L

    It’s a idea if anyone is interested.

    We're just heading up on the train. Gunna get train from waterford to dublin, then dublin to belfast.

    plus trains have toilets on them - very important if youve spent the day filling yourself with dutch gold

    i'd be interested, though i hear the air coach from dublin airport is very reasonable. trains back are i think 10am, 1pm and 3pm.....and june 17th is my boys 1st birthday, so need to get home pretty sharpish....

    Nothing better then being able to just walk out into the car park and onto a bus.
    Don't really wanna be rushing around for the return train ya know.

    myself and my brother are going up and would be interested in getting a mini bus. Do you have any numbers interested yet?

    Ok, I asked about and got this deal,
    14 seat mini-bus, leaving from the city centre Saturday morning, drop us right to the odyssey, Pick us up after the show and return to the city centre.
    Total cost 360euro.

    Now my maths ain't the best but, that divided by 14 people works out at about 20-25euros a head. Which isn't bad for a bus right to the venue and back to dublin again.

    If enough people are interested it's well worth sorting out, no rushing about afterwards chasing trains or and of the other hassle.

    Let me know if your interested.

    Is anyone staying over for this? Managed to get a couple of press passes and it comes with free food and booze so will probably stay the night and return in the morning. Anyone recommend anywhere to stay?
