Atlantic City - Official Roomshare / Rideshare thread?

[chillrob]

Someone suggested this but I don't see one, so I thought I would start it up - maybe a moderator could make this a sticky if they think it is a good idea.

My situation - I live in Arlington, VA, right outside of Washington, DC - would like to attend the convention, but would prefer to share a ride to save on gas and tolls, and definately wouldn't be able to afford a room at the Taj by myself, even with the discounted rates.

Ideally I would like to find the same person / people to share ride and room with, but it could work for it to be different people. I should be able to get off work Thursday-Saturday, but would probably need to work on Sunday, so would probably drive up early on Thursday and drive back late Saturday night. I could probably arrange something with anyone who lives reasonably in the Washington or Baltimore areas.

Would also want to share a room for Thursday and Friday nights (I would probably not be staying over Saturday night). A room at the Taj could be doable, but honestly I'd be just as happy at a cheaper room in Absecon.

Hope there is someone (or a few) people who might be interested in working with me on this. Feel free to PM or just respond here in the thread. Anyone else looking to share a ride or room is welcome to post in this thread as well.
