Yeah, I'm pretty excited. I have had no problems with security as far as anything, really. I've brought cookies, candy, a cake, all kinds of things in my totebag. Never once has anyone bothered me. Cameras are also no problem. I had front row before when I was at Meadowbrook, and got some great pictures *great for a point and shoot, anyway*. No hassles at all.

Can't wait to meet you!

So, anyway, we are still wearing the bowling shirts, right? I'm wearing mine open, over my Al's Star fund logo cami. I'm wearing a black short with that, floral print black socks, and black canvas shoes with zippers on them. See you all there!

Cant wait to meet you as well Patti! I cant believe its already just next week, I'm so excited! I hear this is one of Al's favorite venues, so I'm really looking forward to the energy at this one.

And yes, as far as I know, we'll all be wearing the bowling shirt...those of us who have one. It'll be cool...like our own little tribe at the show. I'll just be wearing black pants with it buttoned up, like Al is dressed for Albuquerque.

Now if only I wouldn't have cut my hair a year ago it would prolly be close to Al's...drat. lol

I'm just thinking about how warm it's gonna be. I might not wear the bowling shirt the whole time if it gets too warm. That's why I'm wearing my cami. Anyway, I hope you're right, and that everyone who said they were gonna wear the bowling shirt still does it. It's gonna be awesome.

well im wearing what Al does, but my shoes are only blk/red checks on the front and back, not the sides like his, i think last time i was there, steve came out b4 and sat with me a bit, no one noticed

Yeah, Steve came over and chatted with Dan and me in Duluth last year while waiting for the show to start and nobody seemed to notice there either. lol. Yeah I'd wear the shoes too but I don't have any vans whatsoever...I'm gonna have to change that here soon.

That's cool that you want to emulate Al, right down to the shoes. I think it still counts if I wear the shirt, though, right? I don't do well in heat, so if I were to wear that shirt buttoned up, and pants, I think I'd pass out. So far, it's been humid, and in the mid-80's, and will be for the next 5 days. I'm guessing the weather will be similar for this show. Anyway, it'll be easy to spot you and Yank27, Fred. I have red and black checked Vans, too, but they have a hole in them.

Haha...now lets hope Al even wears this shirt at this show.

Well, so far, he has been wearing it every show on this leg, so there's a good chance he will for us!

Oh nice! Yeah, he had worn 2 other shirts sometimes last year. The bowling one seems to be his favorite though.

Yeah, I love it as well. I was so happy when I found that shirt online last year. Now, if only I could talk everyone on my bowling team into wearing it....
I am so telling Al that at least one of my teammates thinks we all should wear it.
