Hey Joe, thanks for posting this info first so that mean green thing can get an idea for a story to post on his blog. Can you say copycat!
Yeah, it will be so much fun. We can all go watch people attending who have fat hanging over their waistlines, women with breasts hanging down to their knees and those that look pregnant stuff their faces with all the different kinds of Pork. I mean isn't that all we think about, stuffing our fat faces with food. Lots of fun.
I guess the trailer parks will be empty this weekend.
