Were the "regular" people buying Subaru's that night like, "what the heck is going on?" =]

I think it's good PR to show that Subaru owners take pride in being part of a community. I haven't checked the Evanston Subaru site yet, but are there any pics from the event posted?

Can't wait for the next event. I think there will be a ton more people. I know dealership's are closed on Sundays, but can there be an "unofficial gathering" on their grounds that day? Just a thought...

The regular customers were a little taken back by the chaos, but overall it was definately a plus. Some had kids who loved all the cars, most just liked the fun atmosphere, and free food.

We have a video, but don't know if we will be adding it to our site.

Sunday was brought up (by me) for future events. It will take some heavy "leaning" on the owner to get that ok'd...he is a little aprehensive of it right now.

It's an older "Blue Law". I don't get it either, but 50+ hours a week is enough for me, so I like it!!!

I would love to see a video. I kept seeing cameras when I was pulling in and was wondering if there would be a video from the event, cool stuff.

Our A/V guru will be out of town until Monday. I will embed the video when he gets back and edit's it. (I cannot have too much video of me in that outfit floating around...)

There are no victims here, nor do I need anyone's pity. You have shown what a clown you are, I don't need to change anyone's perception for that to be obvious.

I'm not sure why else you would mention coming by the store to see what I had to say, but you're always welcome here at Evanston Subaru!

Does your Subaru dealer "down there" put on free events for you? Are they vendor's here? If yes, do you mock them after they put on said free events?

Are we done yet?
If you look back, You were the one that made it a "situation", by freaking on the dude for typing the word gay.

I'm not sure I get your point...

Yes I made a situation of someone using the word gay to mean stupid/crappy/whatever.

I made my point about that, and he insisted that he meant "happy", so i played along.

I will continue, in the real world and the interwebz, to vocalize my displeasure with people doing this.

Are you defending the clown community? If so i apologize for calling him a clown. I did not mean to offend anyone.

By "picking on you" I meant giving you crap about your BOV scaring off customers.
