Did anyone make it to Sacramento's Bug O Rama last weekend????
Weather sucked........high of 101f and humidity about the same....Sacto
never has humidity.....
Overall the BOR was ok, but was anyone disapointed with what they paid
just to get into the place?????
Overheard Many  folks complaining about how much it cost to just go to
BOR.
My family paid $80 (3 adults-1 child) for admission, and overnight
camping and we didnt even have a swap space....($40). And the Security
Guards (SS) were rude and rifeling through everyones busses and coolers
all weekend....
Compaired to other shows, Bugformance is over the top....Kelly Park is a
fraction of cost. Gold Country was $7 ea, car entry free, free swap, and
entertainment....Plus it was in a nice pretty setting, Sacramento
Raceway leaves a lot to be desired....
I realise that it costs a lot to put on an event of the size of BOR and
the high cost to rent a drag strip, but come on.....and we dont want the
Gestapo hasseling us.....
my 2 cents
