Big one is less than 1/4 tank of fuel in your car when you move in...otherwise the car doesn't go inside [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

That's an interesting one Bruce. I remember as a kid in the 70's and 80's doing all the indoor shows with my hot rodder father and they wanted the cars as close to empty as possible. Nowadays all the cars have to be as close to full as possible or you will be turned away.

Indeed, the Rosemont Fire Marshall IS very strict with this rule. I know, I know...full is safer, cars in the adjoining valet area have gas at various levels etc etc, but the bottom line is since it is their sandbox, they make the rules.

That being said...PLEASE be sure to arrive with 1/4 tank of fuel or less, because they DO check and they have heard ALL the stories! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img] Saying &quot;Bob said it was OK&quot; won't fly, either!

Seriously, the entire City of Rosemont is incredibly accommodating to us, and very polite and nice most of the time, so let's give them the same respect.

You know, this would be the perfect business opportunity for some entrepreneur: offer a gas siphoning service outside the arena: Charge the guys $1 a gallon to siphon and keep the gas. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]
