Hooter's of Ocean City Car Show
July 6th, 2003

What a way to end the Annual Ocean City Trip by finishing it with a Car Show. All you can really say is "Ain't no Party like a V.I. Party 'cause a V.I. Party don't stop!" As me,
Wendy, Mike, & Tony got on our way home from a wild & crazy weekend in O.C., we had to make a stop at Frontier Town to say goodbye to Mike's Grandmom. As we parked in the lot of Frontier Town, Tony jumped out of his car like a "Bat out of Hell" screaming "There is a Car Show". Well, of course we just had to attend, even without our set ups or trophies. With only 30 minutes to get there for registration, we were at least 45 mins. away because of traffic. As you all know, nothing gets in our way of a car show. So, we hauled it back to O.C. to 123rd St., in & out of traffic, on & off Coastal Highway, trying to miss all lights & traffic possible. Finally we made it with about 2 minutes to spare. At the show, we cleaned the cars with what we had in the 98.6 degree heat & sun. Almost killing ourselves, we got them done. Showing for us ended up being me, Tony D., & yes, finally, Mike since they had an Under Construction Class. The show was not much, but there were some great looking rides and the judges as well. Why the judges? The judges just so happen to be the Hooter's Waitresses! The show was short which was good because we still wanted to get home and rest up for the following day...Back to Work Day! In the end, I took Best Interior & Tony took "Bling-Bling" Shine for his Immaculate Cleanliness of his car. I guess we can't bust on Tony for cleaning his car so much anymore. It paid off on Sunday. After the show we decided to stick around for just a bit longer because you all know, "Ain't no Party likea V.I. Party 'cause a V.I. Party don't stop"! We stuck around at Hooter's to enjoy some food for the ride & some Hot Hooter's Girls! After our chow, we packed it up again & headed home! Next weekend is our split show day between Richmond, VA. & the Edgewood Show. I hope to see everyone at either show!
