Hell yeah! My wife Leah and I will be driving up from Richmond Friday after work. Look forward to meeting everyone. Thank you for organizing Matt.

[Matt]

The countdown begins…

[Daniel San]

saving money begins

[yannis]

Thats a bummer I live 20 minutes up the road but I will be in Greece that week. That sucks. I wanted to meet you guys

[goosehd]

…and a whole year to save for it. The shenanigans will be legendary

[goosehd]

@yannis Is your trip to Greece this year or next?

[yannis]

Lol this year. I just realized its 2026 the IH meeting so I will be good to go. I go to Greece every year. I am from Greece originally but have been living in the US since 1988

[goosehd]

@yannis Fantastic…now you have one weekend in 2026 booked or freed up, depending on how you look at it

[yannis]

Absolutely. Looking forward to it. Exciting!!!

[Twistlock]

Looks promising. Next to check accomodations and flights.

[goosehd]

@Twistlock I don’t know if you can even book flights over a year out.

[Twistlock]

@goosehd , yeah was more thinking about connections into Baltimore and price ranges for budgeting purposes.

Whoohoo! This is so awesome @Matt! I feel like I've heard you joke about a BmoreXIron Heart meet-up. Not in my wildest dreams did I think it would happen! This is so close to me, I will totally be there.

The only chance of me not coming is if my baby is born the same day this year- but he is due the 24th. I already tried telling Amanda we will bring him but she said not on his first birthday. Haha...

And to my Eurohomies- Baltimore has the BEST sports memorabilia souvenirs to bring home with you.

[yannis]

Bwi is the closest airport in Baltimore. Not sure about direct flights though. I am never able to get a direct flight to Athens Greece from BWI so I always fly out of Philly or Dulles airport in DC.

[Matt]

I’d be lying if I said I didn’t make the same mistake. I even took off work this Sept by accident. Wishful thinking.

[goosehd]

@Matt Pre party? Work out all of the bugs in advance

[Matt]

Probably every day between now and then.

[Oaktavia]

Also, I really dig the Maryland flag fused with the Iron Heart logo. Who was behind that idea? It would be pretty cool to see the white and red cross in there too. Right now almost reminds me of the Steelers.

Edit: never mind my lack of Baltimore awareness.

[Matt]

That’s the Baltimore flag. It’s the crest of Lord Baltimore.

Ahh even better I rescind my previous comment.
