    Come to the finnegan's booth, I'll be serving. My wife will be there also. We'll be running a little late, so come later in the evening. See my profile for a picture of me.

    Built it to fit me haha. Set the main hoop as far back as humanly possible, custom seat brackets, and an 8ft steering wheel extension. First car i will ever be able to drive with my legs straight under the steering wheel instead of bowed to the sides

    I hurt my self a few times climbing in and out of your seat when we were putting in the rails.

    Personally, I didn't like it as much as Autumn Beer Review (ABR). *Really* crammed, thx god I got to stand behind the table and not on the public side. Threshld1 never visited me, but I never expect people to. Tony if you want to go to a good beer tasting thing this summer, We'll go to ABR. They also have beerfest in uptown, but that's also really really crammed. I'll be working both of those this year. We can talk when things get closer, but if you're willing to get your hands a little dirty for finnegan's, I might be able to get you into ABR for free :)

    Yes those corridors were not the best setup for an event like that. Tables on both sides caused people to stand and linger by them making it only possible for one or two lines of people to pass. Also having the brewers displays so low made it impossible to see which was what until you were standing in front of it. I was please to find it was catered, i guess the ABR was not beyond pretzels?

    I really enjoyed a lot of the stuff i tried. Cask/tea-bagged Furious FTW!

    I wish i would have been able to make the ABR. All my friends who went said it was much better.

    I stopped by the Finnegans booth a few times but didnt see you there. I think i saw you filling up once but didnt a chance to say hey
