About the Executive Inn. I didn't know what it was at first, but it used to be the Travelodge. I stayed there 2 years ago and it was a pretty decent place. You weren't on the beach, but it was close to everything, it's cheap, and we had no problems with security. You won't want to walk down towards the Holliday Inn area, but it's not too far of a walk to the condos at the front of Thomas Dr.

3. buying underagers drinks at the bar...you can tell how old they are by the wrist band or the hand stamp. players dont buy girls drinks!
4. free stuff! reps will be walking around all day. booths will be set up. do it all.
5. normally they dont have to pull u into the club. thats where everybody goes at night...or most of them. They have free drinks but only certain hours and if u have a certain card...vip card, rockstar card or panamanic card ect...
6. the clubs arent strict about the dress code unless u go into some of the vip rooms. they usually require a button up shirt, belt and nice shoes. not worth the hassle if u ask me.

Good answers! Repped!!

Virginsbreaker, the Days Inn is a great pick. There pool is amazing and every room has a balcony view. Your right next to Hooters, Latitudes and Harpoon Harrys (great party clubs).

My only cons where Tiled floors in the rooms and smelly elevators, thats it.

Tiki Bar

Hey guys -- just wondering if its worth the trip down the beach to the Sandpiper Beacon's Tiki bar. I didn't go down last year but we were down in 2005 and 2006 and it was a blast. Just curious if it was still a fun trip one night away from the super clubs!

The tiki bar at the Sandpiper is still a great place. The bar is prob twice the size as when you were down there last.

Its one of PCB's newer and nicest hotels. I think its only 2 years old and the place is huge! Has a giant carport with an overhanging breezeway but is on the far west end of the strip so it would be ideal to have a car to drive to were the action is. I have a couple of pics of it somewhere.

I haven't really, I know a guy on here Stylz is staying there, so you might check with him. It looks like you guys will be close to Coyote Uglys and not to far from the superclubs so yall should be good.

I'm staying at longbeach as well from the 16th-22nd. It's supposed to be pretty nice and it's not that far from all the action.

I found the place on vrbo and the owner doens't seem to strict about things but I'm not sure if the resort will be or not.

Hey has anyone gone down to Kopy Kat ID services in Dallas, TX? If so do you think that their fake IDs would work down in Panama City over Spring Break...
