Default Oshkosh Accommodations?

Here's the good newsˇK I'm asking about the 2008 show.

I'm just wondering if anyone has advice on accommodations. I found the U
of W dorm rooms interesting at $50/night except there's no air
conditioning. I've had people tell me they can get pretty hot in some
years, (I donˇ¦t do hot). I guess they've got some new AC rooms for $75/
night.

In checking motels in Oshkosh and Appleton they seem to be in full on gouge
mode upping the rates from $100 to $200 during the show.

A perfect world for me would be $100 (or less), air-conditioning, a TV and
a less than 30 minute drive to the show.

Am I dreaming?


One year we stayed in Fon du loc at Merriam (sp?) College dorms. It was
fine and the continental breakfast that came with the charge was great.
I think the only thing they did not have was eggs, but beacon, sausage,
roles, cerals, etc. There was a shuttle between there and Oshkosh. Gee,
I need to go again some time. It has been a long time.
