Friday June 10th & Saturday June 11th.


I can do dinner, still not sure about the actual hamfest but I might go Saturday.

Friday is best for dinner but I could burn a few hours if everyone else wants Saturday night.

Where did ya'll go last year?

Bone Daddys? :baby:

Big Bone Mamas? :baby: :baby:

Well fuck. I was leaning towards not going since the new venue sucks donkey balls... but if Mong's gonna drag his ass out I guess I have to go.

Last year was me, Rick, and Craig at Bone Daddy's.

Good to see they finally caved in to the rabble and allowed tailgating again. HamCom without the parking lot might as well have been Belton (where all the tailgaters ended up going anyway.)

And speaking of the other Texas 'fest, I will be attending that one as well and will have a flea market space. Come buy all my old repeater crap! :baby:

Look at all this wonderful crap y'all could've bought off of me at Belton!


Not planning on having a table at HamCom, still planning on being there.

...and in a surprise turn of events I will have a spot at the outdoor tailgate. Come buy the rest of my old repeater crap!

I'm guessing turnout is going to be a little light this year, seeing as how several of the hotels still have rooms and there are still table spaces available.

The wife and I are going on a day vacation the week after (no kids :mjban: ) so I can afford dinner but probably not much at the fest.


Sounds like every other year :baby:



I need to find out if she's doing dinner or if she would rather stay with the crazy ass kids instead of being around me.

I'm on dayshift this weekend (because I'm a great guy :baby: ) so no hamfest but dinner on Friday is still a go.


I assume Bone Daddys in Richardson. Probably 8pm official but many of us show up early.

What is it guys? 7pm or 8pm for an official start time.

Stuff... happened, and I will only be able to make the 'fest on Saturday. Probably won't be in town in time for dinner on Friday. I'd love y'all forever if we could move it to Saturday night but I understand if peoples' schedules are set.

Still gonna have a tailgate spot tho. :mjban:

I think my wife feels odd around the sausage party (as well she should).

Squatting at Jon's spot inside, got rained out lolol. There is a vendor selling custom showers in the commercial section. I am dying of irony.

1900 for dinner work for everyone?

You all will have to go without Pamela and I, some family stuff came up at the last minute. Messages to Rick went unacknowledged as well!

Missed seeing you at the 'fest Craig. Give the Lurker my greetings too next time y'all talk to him.

What a logistical clusterfuck. At one point a HamCom staffer came up to me in the mud pit... er, tailgate lot and asked me who was assigning spots because she herself did not know. And by the time I left they were offering free spots in the garage because the field was impossible to get in or out of. The sooner they move back to Plano the better. Oh well, still sold all of my high-dollar stuff. :wacker:

Sorry to have missed you guys. Maybe next year...

Circumstances were all screwed up due to family commitments. :cheeseandwhine:

Besides, like Josh said, the venue blows. :xls:
