This past weekend I was at AutoRama in the dump that is Cobo Center, showing people what a 10 year old Cougar looks like (as opposed to the 40 year old variety). This year a whopping 4 other Cougars joined me (also the younger variety) which made the time pass 4 times faster and resulted in 8 times the usual shenanigans. Notable attendees were both KITTs (1984 and 2008 versions), Speed Racer, and Chip Foose. I'm still not entirely sure why the last one is on the list, but Stavos and I were treated to his 20 strong entourage as he passed through our area, with us being the only two who did not get up to take a photo, so I can only assume he's notable. Oh yeah, there were chicks walking around in their underwear which made for a nice highlight as well. This year broke my 3 time winning streak at the event, but my description of "yeah I did some stuff" to the judge probably had something to do with that. The midgets, obese people, redneck fights, scantily clad women and straight up freaks supplied more than enough people watching material to make the event well worthwile.
