It sounds like a good idea.  But, I think the overflow table has helped 
enough to be worth it.  Typically, the latest I've stayed was around 
10:30-11pm.  Before the overflow table, leaving at 11:30-midnight was 
not that unusual, IIRC.  They've also been using the league practice 
table on occassion.

I guess what you're saying is this, "If the league doesn't give-up the 
overflow table, we end-up paying a full rate for our table."  Is that 
correct?
