I'll be there Friday night with my son and son-in-law (daughter's husband).

So, even if the MC Show is lame (due too few manufactures represented) at least I'll get some quality family time in.

When will they be old enough to start paying for my parking, admission and meals? :blink:

If anyone wants to join us for food and beverages at one of the local establishments, let me know. The more the merrier.

Having gone the past 2 yrs., I'll be skipping it this year.

It's not a matter of "IF", but "WHEN"   You know what I mean.

Next weekend Bug, next weekend.

My plan is to be there Sat. late afternoon early evening so I'm all set to head over to Market BBQ about 7:30 where the ADV crowd, aka the cool kids, will be :big_boss:

It's only far, if you don't go

I imagine like most years, I''l be there in the morning until the pirates start invading early afternoon. Just a bit of people watching and then I am out of there. Gets very hard to move through the aisles.

It looks like if you want to use a promo code, you need to purchase your tickets online by 4pm today. I found a $5 off promo code: SAVE5
