Who has the Onyx? I didn't think many people had them on here. Dang it, I wish I would have gotten there earlier lol

hahaha did you find the other card that went down beside your seat? YW card spam ftw.

I hope we get to hang around later next year, maybe we can meet up with you guys beforehand and join the Yaris convoy also.

And since the cooler ban thing was j/k I'm freaking bringing one next time. $3.50 for a Mt Dew is rape.

AppleJacks716 · 07-18-2011, 10:54 AM

The onyx guy came up to me for the 5 minutes i was actually next to my car. He says he is on micro image.

Well this was the first time there was a selection of food vendors besides lemonade and funnel cakes. Yeah it was expensive but it was worth it. As welll with the massive tent beside was new. What were your other opinions on the event? I can pass them into the event hosts.

47_MasoN_47 · 07-18-2011, 11:33 AM

Ah, this is my first year so I wasn't sure what to expect. Having food available was nice for sure, it was just pricey. Something that would be kinda nice (IMO) would be a roving vendor cart with the stickers, shirts, drinks, etc. on it. The vendor area was pretty packed most of the day. If they just had a couple of golf carts roaming around with the IA gear and some water or something I feel like that would do pretty well and would be convenient.

Sure...how about having a way for those that had already entered be able to reenter with an "express" lane during peak times for people just coming in and paying? When you spent an hour in the line to get in it is a bit of a bummer when you have to spend possibly just as much time to regain entry. Also agree with Mason on the cart idea...that would be pretty cool and would most likely net a nice bump in profit. If they wanted to deal with it I am willing to bet they could also rent out those shade tents to folks too. Lastly maybe having a fuel tanker might be a cool idea? That one could be a stretch, but it is miles away to the closest gas station...at least that we could find. And oh yeah, lastly if they could maybe get the state troopers to not be douches and speed trap people coming in over the hill just before the exit on 840 that would be pleasant...just sayin.

33OH · 07-18-2011, 12:40 PM

I haven't made it home yet. I did make it to work though. :)

I was about falling asleep around midnight so I ended up staying in Columbus (about 3 hours from my house) and drove to work straight from Columbus this morning.

But anyways - very nice meet, definitely worth the 1,000+ mile drive! Very nice meeting everyone and seeing some of you again - and Jenn, thanks again a million for lending me your house and hospitality!!
