2016 Frisco Texas FIN MEN

Post by Fin Guy President »

Fins UP! The FIN MEN are busy working on plans for the 2016 show. For the last 5-6 years, we set up the RV/tailgate in the WEST LOT near the restaurants and Comfort Suites. Many years ago, we set up on the EAST LOT. We are considering moving to the EAST lot this year. Has anyone partied in the EAST LOT in the last year or two? If so, what's the vibe like? Do you get a lot of partiers coming in from the grass car lots?

VOTE: FINS to the EAST or FINS to the WEST?

Looking forward to seeing everyone! FINS UP!
FIN MEN. We have the largest fins in the business.

Nice rickie... hey quick question, you were in the gold lot, right? Those bathrooms over there, are there showers? Just curious. FIN MEN are thinking about parking 2 RV's instead of doing RV+hotel. It's hard to shower in the RV with the Fin on.

Plano...nice work on the adirondakmobile. I noticed you cut away a support bar. You gonna beef up that lower bar? All it takes is one fat-ass to ruin your new ride...or 4 hot babes, I suppose. May I suggest adding a big beach umbrella to cast some shade over your beverage and babe? It looks great so far. Looking forward to a ride!

Pres...I'm going to steal that name you gave it...adirondakmobile...I like it. I did not cut a support bar, it was made that way for deliveries and has a really beefed up bar to support up to 500 lbs.

Not me, haven't been to Frisco. Hope to get there one day before Bubba packs it all in. [smilie=battingeyes.gif]

I have been to Frisco 6 times and the Blue lot has never had much going on. The Red lot and Gold are the fun spots.

yes, our last visit to the Blue lot landed one of the FIN MEN in jail. The parrotheads in the lot chipped in an bailed him out in time for the show. Turned out to be a big mistaka. Sounds like we will stay put in the Red lot again this year.

The Some Beach Pirates were considering a move to Blue but we have decided to stay in Red again this year. We don't think the 40% up charge for the Gold lot is worth it......are we missing something there?
Some of it's magic......

Your not missing anything. However, the gold lot is nice because your guaranteed the spots you purchased weeks ahead of time (number of spots...not specific location) and you can come into the lot at any time. Some of our party come in as late as noon and we have reserved spots for them. We usually get there on Friday morning to pick out a specific lot location, set up a few things and then come back for a Friday night party, then head home and come back Saturday around 7am to get it all set it.
