Title: No show for Chicago?
Post by: Larry on April 01, 2008, 11:48:12 am
Just curious if anyone is going to the show.  There seems to be a lot of maybes.  Is there any definites?  Is the Fall show more popular?  I'll be there on Friday morning cruising the lot.  I'm not planning on getting anything, but since its only twenty miles away, what the heck.

I can say  with certainty I  won't be going.  No time off, no  loose change to splurge on.

I was on the fence... then the better half came up with some reasons why I should't go..
Like ....
I have to much "Crap" (her words) already, and I don't have any more money, or time to work on more stuff....
should I go on.....

I still don't see that as a reason why not to go... but won't be going this time around... Fall for sure!

Have fun to those who go... Let's see some photos of of the things we missed...

Sounds just like my wife...stuff comes in, but never goes out! (her words).
Won't be going again...long way to travel for me...one of these years!
Would love to be a part of it sometime though...have fun everyone.

I can tell you no for now maybe in the fall
got to get ready for Pinball at the Zoo taking the
Vernors, Crush and the S&S  Hunters or a Glasco and
a few Picnic coolers and some other stuff.

 Plus like the rest of you my wife has said you have to much S :censored: T
and your running out of room (then I slipped and said I still have not filled your brother's
barn yet :oops:)

  And Kilroy you had better show up at K Zoo you said you would  :smile:.

No Fall Show this year for me either! We just welcomed the newest member of our expanding family into the world on March 21st! Funds have been diverted and I need to be around home to help my wife take care of the little guy. I hope to make it to the November show!

Use a vintage cooler with the dolly kit! Maybe a Squirt cooler and Lil' Squirt decals?
