Stop in for a cup of coffee

I'm curious on car shows. I bring my car to an event so people can see it and I get charged for admission. Not looking for a trophy and not wanting to pay 20 or more bucks to attend. Last car show I was at there was an award for best paint and I defiantly had the best paint. Not bragging just a bunch of cars with really bad paint jobs. Kinda think the local guys win and us out of town guys loose.
About done with showing my car, think next car show I'll park mine in the spectator parking lot and get a chance to talk to a bunch of good car guys and not have to pay to get in.
Our show $15. We give out 100 schwag bags and they are worth $15 if not more. This year we had 30 bags from last year and gave every one out. Our local parts store matches our budget for the bags, so thats where the value comes in. No judging, 3 draws.
