Honestly, I'd probably only show up to Porky's. For me the big thing is being OUTSIDE in the summer hanging out. I don't need to have food/drink even be a part of it and it wouldn't be as fun for me to hang out inside a Red Robin.

For the winter having meets at bars/restaurants was fine because of the weather. But in the summer I want to be outside in the nice weather and preferably at a place that's condusive to hanging out like Porky's. And a place where checking out/talking about cars comes first. I don't see myself sitting around the parking lot of a Red Robin.

I think a lot of us are the same way.

I think the idea of splitting the venue is a needless complication. Porky's is pretty central for everyone and it's a great summer hangout place. If we want to hang out at a RR or Boston's or somewhere else, they could be planned on an ad hoc basis for a different night.

I also don't see what is so overly limited in the Porky's menu. It's a burger joint and the buffalo chicken rules.

Seriously, planning anything is just fucking stupid right now. A simple yay or nay to the idea was all i wanted to get so we could get a MAJORITY opinion, and then it goes off kilter again. Sorry, Porkys gets fucking old for an every week occurance and I can only take so much of the RC cars and shit that attracts the cops to the area like mad. Is it fun, umm, fuck yeah it is, but do I want a change of pace every so often? Yup. I'm done trying to plan and please.

Oh, and I don't not show up because I can't afford the gas ot life after for the rest of the week, I generally just have other shit going on and last summer was a really busy one for us with the housing changes. Meets in the metro will often end up where the majority flock. Can't afford the gas for the 15 mile trip? Let off the gas pedal or get a honda.

/END RANT. I'm going to get shitfaced tonight. With Hamms!

Dude, I understand. Porkys isn't for everyone, and that's totally cool. I don't make every meet, because I don't have finances. Porkys is close to my home, so it works for me. AV is close to my home, so money permitting, I'd be down for a burger. My big hangup is I don't want to go the opposite direction of home right after work in the middle of the week. I hate being out late on a weeknight ( it bugs the hell out of me. ) so when we have a meet like that, and I leave plymouth, unless i'm hammer down the whole way, it makes it a minimum 30min drive, instead of the 10 for Porkys. I'm all for diversifying the meets, seems to keep people coming. But my stance is as said.

Which is why 3 of those 4 monthly meet would work for you then. Hell, I'd probably end up heading to at least one in AV over the summer. I'm just fucking irritated cause it seems like everyone wants every meet to be within their means, and that just aint going to fucking happen as we grow. So if I have to be a dick and get people fired up to have them realize that, so be it. We are growing, we need to realize the more members we have the less majority we will appeal to.

Well, let's put it to a poll. The biggest problem we have is yeah, we attract a ton of new members as of late, but it's too early to make a determination as to who is where and stuff like that, and as a result, far too difficult at this stage (at least IMO) to decide what meet spot is the best meet spot. Hell, just to be assholes, we could start meeting at the Porkys on Central, and all get shot at.
