Re: Des Moines Good-Guys (July 2-4)
Sorry to hear you won't be able to make it to Des Moines.
Kid are you going to be able to make it to KS? I heard about the good time you guys had last year and would love to check out your truck(s).

Re: Des Moines Good-Guys (July 2-4)
Des Moines is my favorite Goodguys event.
I may not have my blazer there. I think we're taking a buddys '50 pickup.

Re: Des Moines Good-Guys (July 2-4)
I want to go, is it here at the fairgrounds again? I went 2 years ago and it was the best car show I'd ever been to.

Re: Des Moines Good-Guys (July 2-4)
Green K20, yep it's at the Iowa State fair grounds again. If anyone needs discount tickets, I can purchase them for $10 ea from my Snap-on guy while he has them. They are $18 normally.

Re: Des Moines Good-Guys (July 2-4)
I got my registration in the mail today; number 1319 IIRC.
Couple of questions guys... Are coolers allowed? - Do they look in the coolers for cans, glass or plastics? (Dumb question, but I don't want to be turned away) What's the parking situation like? I've only been to KS GG's as a spectator, so I'm new at this. Canopy tents allowed/needed? I understand there's an assortment of bldgs and trees (not found at KS). Just trying to get an idea of what I need to bring and what to expect when we arrive in IA.

Quote:
We normally stay away from glass bottles. We keep beer in a cool cups. There are tons of food vendors there. Canopies are where ever you can find to put one up. Parking is where ever you can find a place to park. There are a series of roads that wind thru the fairground. There are also a few big parking lots. Some are designated for certain selected winners. Parking in most grass areas is allowed also.

Re: Des Moines Good-Guys (July 2-4)
Nate, thanks for that. I'm going to preregister right now. And yes on the canopies. We took two in last year and they sure came in handy when it rained.
