I wanted to post a reminder for everyone who is going to need a hotel and hasn't booked one yet. The discounted rate at the show hotel will end next Monday and after that it will be the standard room rate. We are at a Holiday Inn Express close to the university and the group rate is $89 a night for a king or two double beds with breakfast included. There are still a few rooms left so hurry up before you miss out.
You can call the Holiday Inn 800 number (888) 465-4329 and mention the Jacksonville Arcade Expo for the group rate.

I don't know how much it will affect rates and availability but I know some hotels I contacted wouldn't give me a group rate because they were already booked.
