This got buried underneath the 400 different Favre opinions/maturity lessons you all feel need to be separate fanposts.  I feel its more relevant to the DN community than most of those other posts, so I deleted the old one and am reposting it.  I really hope to get feedback to gauge what the DN community presence will be at TC.  I hope anybody who has previously been will share their experience here.

So, I know a few of us have quipped about possibly going to training camp over the past month or so, (And I think there may have even been a fanpost about it a while back, but i couldn't find it in a search) but now that it is just days away, I'd like to know... Who's going?

Here's the schedule

And here's a map of the camp

I'm thinking about making the multi-hour drive to Mankato from Illinois for a day, probably later in the camp schedule.  Who else is going?  What day(s) are you planning on attending?  For people who have been before, what days/events are the best?  What else is there to do in Mankato?  Any cheap places to stay?

 Not being from Minnesota, I have never been to training camp, but I would like to add it to my "Vikings experiences" list.  How are the autograph sessions?  I don't really care so much about a 'graph, but I'd like to maybe get a few snapshots with some players... are they keen to that?

 Post any and all Training Camp plans or information here!!
