Herbie !!
Today was just too fun !! Although the weather almost didn't cooperate, we
had a fantastic turn out for the arrival of Herbie. Rough guess, about 50 VW's of all types lined up for a huge caravan into Pensacola complete with police escort. It was a real treat for everyone to see Herbie and the guys that were in charge of him could not have been nicer. Real thanks to our club leader Bill Tucker ("Wild Bill" ) who did a fantastic job of organizing everyone and setting up the luncheon at the local VW dealer. It was something to see. One of our club members took these shots : http://public.fotki.com/PMS/vw_event...rbie__friends/ Susan S. |

Nice Photos. I went to see a movie (The Longest Yard) on Saturday,
and they had a big cardboard Herbie on the wall promoting the movie. Wonder if they would have noticed it I walked away with it. |

Ok, The fish car was part of the tour as the company "American Pride
Seafood" is one of the sponsors of the movie (if I understood correctly). The kids thought the fish car was very funny ! As for the trailer, Herbie did arrive to the rest stop in the trailer, was quickly unloaded and drove the rest of the way into Pensacola. As I understood, Herbie is driven through the towns but on the long stretches of interstate is in the trailer which was well decorated for the promo. And Johnboy....didn't your mama ever teach you that if you don't have something nice to say, just keep your mouth shut ???? Bill, Often places like the movie theaters give away those displays after the movie is done showing there. Just ask the manager and they may put your name and number on it and will call when they are done with it. Did this exact thing with a huge Toy Story 2 display from Wal Mart for my son's bedroom. Was well over 6' tall....Was a real trip getting that thing home !! LOL "Bill Berckman" > wrote in message ups.com... > Nice Photos.
