UWC Weigh Ins Friday Night

As everyone here at BE knows by now, UCW will be this Saturday, Feb. 21st.  Now I ask you, who is hardcore enough to go to the weigh ins?  They will be Friday the 20th. Last I heard, they start at 4:00PM and will be in the ballroom of the Hyatt Fair Lakes Hotel in Fairfax, VA.  They are open to the public as far as I know so I am going to be there baring a traffic nightmare on my way from MD.  I expect the turnout to be slightly larger then for the Affliction weight in because I will be there and they other person coming with me to the show wil be there, so thats two.  I don't know when they will be done, but I am sure they will be done in time to see the MFC show on HDNet that starts at 10. So, who will join me?
