I’m TOTALLY in favor of a Dopefest! Okay, here’s my schedule as far as I know so far: Arrive Wednesday, June 23 at 12:30. Was planning to sightsee, etc. in the afternoon, so that would be a great time to get together. Thursday–The day before the tournament. I’ll have stuff to do, but not at any particular time. I’m going to try to sightsee this day too. Probably be hanging out with my buddies that evening. Friday: First part of the tournament Saturday: Second part of the tournament, and probably celebrating or commiserating with my compadres in the evening. Sunday: Misc. events, but things should have wound down by the evening, so I may be available Monday: Leave 11:30 am. So, I vote Wednesday evening! Or lunch on Thursday. What do you all think? ---

> [@Avarie537](#): > > Ooh ooh ooh - if we go to Mass Ave we can go to Yat’s. EVERYone who visits Indy needs to go to Yat’s! Have you been to Papa Roux’s yet? Yat’s is good, but Papa kicks ass. He and his family are Katrina transplants from New Orleans, and they set up shop near 10th and Post. They’re open for lunch all week, and dinner on Friday (closed Sunday). If you dine in, you get free unlimited sides and free sweet tea. It’s tremendously delicious. ---

Clarification: > [@Green\_Bean](#): > > Arrive Wednesday, June 23 at 12:30. Was planning to sightsee, etc. in the afternoon, so that would be a great time to get together. I meant Wednesday evening, not afternoon as the proposed time for the fest. ---

Aw man! We’ll be on vacation that week. I just looked at my school calendar, and that’s our summer break. But we might push it to September, so count me in as a tentative yes. And I’ve never been to Papa Roux. Yat’s is a lot closer, and I luff them! [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/so-whats-there-to-do-in-indianapolis/529406.md?page=2)
