Change Of Chicago Venue To O'Hare Marriott

[Greg Ambrosius]

We apologize for the late change of venues involving our Chicago drafters, but we are switching hotels for the March 29-30 NFBC drafts. The Oakbrook Marriott had some trouble with the space that we had reserved and we agreed that the space at the Chicago Marriott O'Hare would work better for us. So we are moving slightly north but in the same general vicinity of Chicago.

I will email everyone today who signed up for Chicago about our new plans and make sure everyone is on the same page. We'll update our Chicago city page on the NFBC site ASAP as well. We are working on a room block at $99 per night and hope to have that code available soon as well. Sorry for the confusion, but this looks like a nice hotel and will work for anyone coming into Chicago for these drafts. Thanks for your understanding all.

Here's the new info and a link to the hotel's home page:

Chicago Marriott O'Hare

March 29-30, 2013
Chicago Marriott O'Hare
8535 West Higgins Road
Chicago, IL 60631
(773) 693-4444

The NFBC will host its live drafts in Chicago this year at the prestigious Chicago Marriott O'Hare with two days of events scheduled. Friday will include the 15-Team Auction Championship and the NFBC XII, while Saturday will have the 15-Team Main Event and the NFBC XII.

Spots are limited for these Chicago events, so reserve your spot NOW!!

Food and drink during the drafts will be provided by the NFBC. We'll take care of that; you just draft the best team possible.

The NFBC has a special room block at the Chicago Marriott O'Hare for $99 per night Friday through Sunday. Details coming soon.


And if anyone wants to organize a little venture down to the casino on Thursday, Friday or Saturday night, we'll try to help where we can. As soon as we get some interest we'll work with folks to make this happen. Sound good? Thanks all.

My fault Bill. I updated this on the site late last week and didn't post the information here. If you click on the Cities link and go to Chicago, you'll see the information there. Here it is again:

The NFBC has a special room block at the Chicago Marriott O'Hare for $99 per night Friday through Sunday. Call 773-693-4444 for the special rate and use code STATS/NFBC.

This offer is good through March 8th, so reserve your room before then. We have a limited number of rooms available for each night, but we should be good to go. Thanks for asking and again I apologize for not updating this thread. Thanks all.

Thanks and sorry Greg. I hadn't checked the cities lately.
