If Gary goes any place closer than iowa consider me there... nobody shows much interest in our beer city.... UGH well im in wherever and def. makin a trip to iowa JUNE 21

"and so far MO is far from happening it needs more pushing!"

OK show me state folk. I think it either needs to be St. Charles or Columbia with a side trip afterwards to a winery so that Gary V can begin to consider what Mo has to offer to the wine world. Time to decide or get off the pot.

Would be fantastic to see Mr. Vaynerchuk in STL! I can guarantee at least 2, possibly 6+.

I'd definitely, definitely be there... and would bring several industry/distributor friends, a couple of chefs, and my girlfriend.

I'm a relative new-comer to St. Louis. Moved here in January. For the first two months not a day went by that someone didn't say - Wait till summer and trips to the wineries. Now everyone is making their plans - birthday parties, etc. So I'm imagining this amazing St. Louis wine culture, but somehow we can't get 150 people to commit to showing up for a visit by Gary V...? Anyone in STL have any ideas how to make this happen?!?!

I can do either KC or STL. I can guarantee myself for either place and maybe two others if it's in STL.

Saint Louis would rock! I've got 3 that would come.

Sounds like the St Louis area is where the most people would be available for a book signing. I am willing to coordinate emails, names, etc for this. I would need someone who lives in the St. Louis area to take care of the rest. Any takers?

TJ_Dave = "taker"...I'll help however I can...! Let's make this happen.

Just did a count and less than 50 people based on responses to this forum.
(*If someone said, "...can bring 80 people!!!!!!!!..." I counted 50% to be conservative...so 40 were added to count.)

you can count my wife an I in for sure and I could probably drag along a couple of other wine loving friends...
