Less than a week until set up begins!
This bad weather that has been the case more often than not here all of 2019 shows no sign of breaking, so I probably will have to arrange having my Challenger trailered.  I was hoping for an Indian summer with temps in the 70s so I could drive there top down!  Or I'd settle for dry salt free streets but even that doesn't look promising.
I'll be guarding the exit overhead door Thursday and Friday, watching the stage area near Mopar alley over the weekend so say hi if you see me!

I'll be wearing mine as well. Maybe over 3 layers of thermals, but hey...

Hate to say it ... but don't even know your name (gasp!) ... or what you look like?  ::)

Is there a secret E-bodies org recognition sign we're suppose to know? Tug on the ear-lobe ... wipe of the eye-brow ... etc., etc.  :waving:
Cheers!

My name is Brad and I have a name tag on my yellow Staff jacket (actually some are orange).
I'll probably be the only guy watching the stage area, there are some soundboard guys there but usually just one MCACN member.  We get relieved for breaks etc so I'm not there all the time but most of the time.
As for what I look like, the old cartoon lost dog poster comes to mind.  The one that says blind in one eye, 3 legged, infested by fleas, answers to the name "Lucky".  :rofl:
Ok, I still have two eyes but I wear glasses.  No fleas but I do limp. If you see a tall guy in a staff jacket limping around taking pictures of cars that will likely be me!

Are most of you buying your ticket online? How does that work? I'm not too up on it.

Did you purchase tickets online?  I'd think they'd have instructions with your confirmation for how your order is processed, either printout, mailed to you, or if they will be at the Will-Call booth in the lobby for pickup. Will Call would be my first guess, but then I'd expect your reciept would say pick up at will call booth at the show not expect you to show up there to see if they have them.

Let me know what the problem is and I can see about fixing it.

My bad. My comment above was aimed at another thread regarding something I'd ordered elsewhere. . Not sure how it got on this one. My MCACN ticket is in my truck and good to go.

12 hours from now I'll be arriving at the convention center!  I'm supposed to be there at 9am. I just came in from the garage where I was doing a little detailing on the car.  Much as I'd like to drive it there tomorrow, the forecast is rainy so I'll wait until Friday.
Can't wait!  :cooldance:

I hope to meet you. I'll be in my e body t shirt and roaming around with a buddy that recently bought a Hellcat and literally can't quit grinning.

Made it this PM, caught a few pics (450!) while there were no spectators...
Will be back tomorrow AM, let me know if there are any cars you'd like more pics of!
Also got to have a few adult beverages with Dave Radcliffe @MoparDave and friends, nice guy! I thanked him for supporting the site!

After two 13 hour days working at the show I've been too exhausted to organize my pictures and upload to Flickr but I'll get to it!
I got the convertible there this morning in one piece so that's good.
Met a few members today and look forward to seeing more tomorrow!  :cheers:
