Event Coverage The 15th Annual World Famous Swindlers Poker Run: 9-27-14

When: Saturday 9/27/2014

Where: starts at 9AM at the Conway Pub in Conway WA.

How much: Only $10 buys you a poker hand, and you could WIN BIG!!!

But what about lunch??: We're sticking with last year's lunch break. We'll be stopping in the town of Edison, so you can buy your own lunch DAMMIT!

What should I bring: Bring your traditionally styled hot-rod or custom and be prepared to DRIVE throughout the most beautiful scenery in the Pacific Northwest, along with 100 other bitchen ass cars! Bring a friend. Bring your wives and your daughters, but leave your rat-rods and your Centerlines at home...

Should be a good turn out this year. Do a search for some photos of the previous 15 years worth of events....

 

O,K, So my 2011 touring guide don't have Conway or Edison listed. Guess I could Google it but just what part of Washington are you in?

If you're not sure if your car is a traditionally styled HOT-ROD or CUSTOM, have a look through these threads and see if your car will fit...

Ok I have a question, I have cars in all those there picture show links you pasted up but now I'm into television style ratty Rodneys, I figure I'm grandfarthered into the new date, plus I hand painted my own swindler jacket. How many trophys will there be, also Edison, is this a good idea? I witnessed a swede almost get knocked out by the chef for ordering quiche

 

No rain this year.....Guaranteed.

 

Can't wait

 

Dread - your video kills me! So good.

 

Gracias,only three cuss words this year!

 

Can't wait!

One of the best events in the Northwest hands down. Plus those swindler fellas are so good lookin

 

You can even buy one of this years sweet T shirts...

There may be some magazine coverage this year too...FYI

 

Bump, for those few that might still check the HAMB every so often...

 

Cool, my parole officer said that as long as I behave I can leave the house for 2 hours that day. Now all I have to do is swing through Wall Mart and siphon some gas, and maybe a battery and I will be there.
Anyone know the best way to remove those home monitoring ankle bracelet.

 

Fill a cowboy boot with Vaseline, slip it on with the monitor all the way covered, leave on for 47 hours, remove boot, monitor will be left in the bottom. Towel foot off

 

Thank you speedbarrons, figured there would be at least one in the group that knew the trick, see ya there, I'll be the guy with one cowboy boot on.

 

How come everybody told me it was on Sunday?

 

Seriously ? Do you really need to ask ?

 

HaHa. That's funny!

 

Doug, you and the Canadians got Sunday invites...

 

Why the "special" invitations? I get the Canadian part though.

 

Dug , With all the Canadians coming you should just show up a day early on Sat am by 8:00-8:30 to make sure you get ahead of em.

 

The Oyster Run is on Sunday this year, we'll get to pop Edison's cherry this time rather than biker-trash sloppy seconds. No offence to biker trash Hudsoncustom......

 

Looking forward to it, as usual.

 

Dear god,

Please let nothing get in the way of me finishing the truck for the run.

thanks
Matt

 

Any place to sleep it off (B&B maybe??) in Conway or Edison before dragging our butts back to Spokane??

 

Lots of places in Mt Vernon, might be a b&b in Edison.

 

how about La Conner? http://www.wildiris.com/ Along with Mt Vernon , you have the Smokey Point / Marysville area south of Laconner with lots of Hotels.
