Earlier today there were still rooms available at the Ramada Inn and Motel 8 (both $80 / night) in Fairview Heights, IL which is fairly close to the track. I did a search on expedia.com
I am staying at the Casino Downtown on the IL side (Casino Queen) they still have rooms. they are 5 mins from the track, accross a bridge from the bars in downtown STL MO. $90/night, w/ lighted secured parking!!
Cool, see ya there. I am there for WFC and a Bachelor Party too! I am in a Red 94 L with a black Tonnaue cover. My friend with a white 01 will be there on Friday too. The others guys are Stang guys only.. We are planning to go right across the river to STL MO "the landing" (normal bars) on Thrusday Night.
