I’m going to be up there the 21st and maybe the 22nd. Nuts.

I hope the theatre has a bad ass sound system.

Had to be hotter than ba**s in that thing.

Shared this with a buddy whose wife is getting treated at Mayo. Hope him going here might brighten this day a bit. Thx.

I visited their collection a few years back thanks to a PCA thing, definitely worth the trip... I imagine they'll have even more room in a new facility ! Also got to meet that utter gentleman that is Hurley Haywood, first class guy !

This was at the NASCAR Hall of fame. It's basically a hollow ball, and yes I bet it would be pretty hot in there.

Happy to report the wife has approved a drive-by.

So at least I’ll get to see the place and maybe peek in windows.
