Friday Night Meet & DRINK at the Jalopy Showdown

We talked about this last year around the campfire after I noticed there were lots of little groups of HAMB peeps all over the camping area and infield on Friday night. I'd like to bring everyone together for alittle meet & drink. Kinda like the meet & greets we do all over the country at the different events but this would last for a couple of hours and really give folks a chance to socialize, chat and get to know each other.

I'll bring name tags, sharpies, and a HAMB Meet & Greet banner that I'll hang. We'll have some muchies there as well as a large bonfire. You show up with your own beverages and your hand outstretched ready to meet new car pals and visit with old.

How does 9pm sound? Gives everyone a chance to set up their tents, have dinner, whatever, then mosey over. The location will be our camp site (with the Rochester NY HAMB boys) which is located just past the entrance to the infield, on the right hand side.

Meet & Drink ends at midnight as Scary Larry needs his beauty rest.

 

Sounds mighty fine to me!!! Count me in!

 

If anyone wants to follow our lead to Williams Grove right up the road for sprinters around 6pm on friday. sprint cars are a breed apart especially to those that havent seen it before! Even if they are "wingdingers" and not "real" sprint cars...and we will be back in time for some late night (but not too late) antics! (Jack Daniels)..campsite will be just down from the meeting spot by the creek

No drinking for me this year. But I'm sure we'll still go on walkabout on Friday and Saturday night. We'll be sure to stop by!

 

You guys are what made me think of it. I don't have a problem going from campsite to campsite but sometimes others do so I thought this might be a neat way for others to meet each other. Looking forward to seeing you and your posse again.

GREAT, looking forward to chatting with you.

Are you the ones that set up down by the "entrance" to the creek....with the wooden pavillion/stage thing right there?

 

See you guys there! Just a few er... minor details to take care of...

 

Looking forward to it!

 

Mad man!!!!

 

I thought Friday already was a giant Meet & Drink? So the difference is that we'll have name tags this year?

 

Yes, so we can know who we are pointing and laughing at

 

It's hard to read someone's nametag when they're p***ed out face down in the mud! I better wear mine on my back...

 

Don't worry about it....I'll turn you over. After all, I wouldn't want you to choke on the mudd in your mouth.

 

Any chance of a meet-n-greet on Sat.?

 

Should be a bunch more Hambers showing up on Saturday that couldn't be there Friday. I figure the HAMB banner would still be the way to know where to meet. If there's a way to sign a tablet with your handle to show you were there, would just be nice to know how big the HAMB clan was. Would be cool to recognize the long distance participant too.

Watcha think?

 

I'll be there!

 

Me too!

 

Moparsled and I are coming from Colorado, but won't be there until Saturday morning, if anyone wants to meet up Saturday.

 

Hell I'm always in for a few drinks

 

oh well i guess i can have a few too.

 

Man, it's been a while since I've been on here... I'll see you guys and gals on friday. Can't find a replacement U-joint so it looks like I'll be there without the Desoto again this year, but I'll be dragging the scotty up and I think Dave's gonna drive his rusty '56 Wagon up again.

 

I might be there friday night, not sure yet. If I do make it, this might be a good way to meet other Hamber's, although I'm not a very exciting person to meet,lol.

 

Sound s fun..

 

I don't get to make it this year but Chuck "HOTRODSURFER" will have my 59 ElCamino there on Sat. so everyone give it a tap onthe tail light to say hi.

 

or help me get all the mud off

 

I call shotgun!!!!

 

Dammit, Denise........you beat me to it!!
