Stop in for a cup of coffee
It’s getting to the point that I should sell my car to be able to afford tho go to car shows
The price gouging is out of control. I am not for more rules or laws, it just ruins an event.
Side note but semi related. A local rockabilly hot rod weekend show was all about traditional pre 1964 rod rods, greasers, poodle skirts, etc. They got so popular they are now using most of the parking for camping (more $$$). We got my son's hot rod done and drove both there last fall. Show is full, don't care you brought a car, don't care where you park - just somewhere else, $20 per person please. Really, so it is just a party now with the same "friends" cars every year. Nothing new, camping parties, drunks everywhere. Not sure I will go back.
When it becomes about just about the money, it ruins it for me. I think when local hospitalities are gouging for an event, the event should promote ones that don't or move to another location. I know that is very difficult, but then those places get nothing, instead of full book and gouging. Places like Bonneville, well we are screwed - only so many places. Rant done
