Hanging Dice Reunion Ft. Smith Arkansas August 27,28,29

[Jester]

Jest got my trend setter and low and behold "pick a show and go" has the Ft Smith show listed for the 27,28,29 of August. Tried to get a room at the host motel and they are already booked solid. This is the closest kkoa show to me only 4.5 hours so its a definite hope to see the local hamb'ers there.

This show used to be THE show everybody in the region looked forward to. I've been many times. Met many lifelong friends there. Toward the end, if you remembered the show, you weren't there. Many beers were consumed. Many watermelons were set on fire. The flamethrower shows were very impressive!!! I highly recommend you go. There's a motel 6 or super 8 or something right next door, call them.

This is kick ass....I live in Ft. Smith of all places, who ever is coming let me know and we can get together. I have been waiting for the show to come back, it was just too good to not happen anymore. Does it say where it will happen...same place (Kay Rogers Park) or different? hopefully I will have a running car by then http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif.

there was a fellow hamb'er who said that he was the guy standin there in the black shirt....it's not one of my best photos, but it IS my first lightnig pic....

below that photo on his site is the car I drove that year...light blue with flamethrower exhaust....same car I drove to Davenport IA from Ozark AR in july of '98...

ahhhhhhh, the splashin nudies in the pool, the antics involving a certain Barber's chevy with certain DFW people on wheeled office chairs from the rooms in tow (got a pic of that on MY site (http://www.geocities.com/bondo_king_jim/stuff2do.html) http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif)

If I had known this was gonna happen, I wouldnt have moved so far away......sheesh

[JK]

HOLY SHIT!!! I can't believe I forgot about the office chairs!!! Man, I'da loved to see the look on the managers face when the guests for the next weekend called the desk to say their chairs had no rollers. I betcha those bitches are bolted to the floor this year. It's really amazing that nobody got killed that year. And the lightning storm!!! Sumpthin else! Good times.

[kustomd]

That was a kick ass show. My buddies 58 ford was behind the office chairs to catch em if they fell off at one point. I remember jesse falling off and getting bashed up. Also that 57 ford with the 500 caddy in it doing burnouts in the parking lot. I believe that was jesse's to. Glad its back I'll damn sure be there.

[Jester]

Heres an update for those who care: The host motel made a mistake and there are still rooms availible, the motel 6 has rooms and I have 3 rooms there researved as well as 1 at the host motel. The guys from Hope will be there in force so hope to see you all there. Don if you need a room let me know and I will change one of the rooms to your name otherwise you may want to call the host motel and get a room.

[JamesG]

I'll be there but only for the day. Saturday most likely. That is if the "good" people at Nazi, sorry, Union Pacific will let me off..........damn did I say that out loud....LOL.......

Me and my wife went back in 99. She was Five months pregnant with our son an dshe was miserable! I know I was hotter than ten thousand little bitty mother f#@kers!

Hope to see ya'll there...................! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
