    Joking about what, the tank? It's no joke, he posted FB pics of him loading the tank up on a train for Omaha.

    I can also take 2 other people with Sara and I. But, if you win that tank......it won't fit in my car.

    Just message me if interested.

    Dave - I'd be happy to hitch a ride with you. Plus I know that either you or Deanna has a 'heavy foot' - based on your passing me on the way back from Live Aquaria - and then we didn't see your car again... LOL

    This is looking better and better. May have to drop the family off at the Zoo and get over there. I want to see someone from Iowa bring back that 450 gal tank. Would put GIRS in the spotlight for a bit, on Facebook, Youtube, and the forums.
    I'll have to get Friday night off, otherwise I get off at 7:30 am Saturday and will be up waaaaaaaaaaaaaay to long by the time 7pm rolls around.

    You're not bringing it back in my car that's for sure. :)

    Last time we were here Mark gave a shout out to GIRS on one of his youtube shows. Just make sure you drop the family off with enough money and snacks so they don't drag you out of the store in the middle of a good presentation. :D

    Found out wife's working and kids going to another homecoming dance. Probably only go if I rode with someone.
    Not taking my piece of junk truck that far and she gets the good car.

    (Tank would fit on roof ; saw a guy put a snap on tool box on the roof of his car. Quite funny, caved in the roof)

    Just to let everyone know that we will have a drawing for some prizes after the first speaker. So don't worry if you're not there right at 10am.

    @Fence13@Fence13 I may not need a ride but I will not know until tomorrow. My daughter might not have to work Saturday morning and if that is the case I will not need a ride. I wont find out until tomorrow. She is third in line to work so if all goes well she will have the weekend off. I will let you know as soon as I find out.
