During the week of July 27 - Aug 1, I attended the Buick Club of America, (yeah, there is such a thing), National Meet at ISU outside of Hilton and the Scheman Center. Around 300+ cars and 700 people attended.
Heard many comments from participants form all over the US, Canada, and even from as far away as New Zealand, (no he didn't drive a car), on how well we were all treated by The University and the City of Ames. So thanks to all the local folks that made our time there so enjoyable! Never thought I'd tailgate in lot C-2 for any reason other than football or basketball, but there I was enjoying a cold one while sitting on the running board of my '39. Great practice for September 2, and the upcoming victory over NIU!
I know that most on here could not care less about an antigue car show featuring Buicks, no less, but still, you can be proud of the local Cyclone contingent, and of how well they treated us all. A special thanks to the town of Jewell who put on a pork, sweet corn feed for the 100+ of us who drove up there on Friday night to party. Super great time!
By the way, there was talk by some of the Jewel locals of neutering the few Husker folks who drove over from Ne, at the local Jewel Vet Clinic on main street. Didn't happen though.
