A Sea Of Red

So who is coming to TRBC's annual shindig this year?

ME!!!

I should be there.

I will be there

i should be there

I will get there a little before the fireworks...I can't handle all the music they have there....its enough to drive me insane....I worked it last year and wanted to kill myself by hour number 2....but the fireworks were cool

I wonder if I can see the fireworks from my house. If so, no use going to the school and fighting traffic and all of that.

If you want to see LU fireworks but don't want to face the crowds, CVCC is nice location to view the action--bring a blanket or lawn chairs.

I park in front of the East Campus Clubhouse...just walk through the tunnel and hop in the car and hop 460 East for the 45 minute drive to Farmville.

Wish I could but I intern for the Hillcats and we have a game that night.

However, Tuesday we are having our Feed Your Face Night... all you can eat Pizza, Popcorn, hot dogs, hamburgers, peanuts and a ticket for $10.
And then on July 4th we have fireworks.

I know, it's a plug, but hey, I saw the opportunity. GOOOOOOOOOO AMERICA!!!

we've talked about feed your face tuesday's alot on here

Please don't remind me about feed your face Tuesdays

maybe.

No use going when I can sit in my bedroom and watch it on tv with no traffic or anything.


One thing I noticed with whoever sang last: they all looked the same. All had on the exact same pair of jeans, with the exact same style of button up shirt with the sleeves rolled up and their hair perfectly "messed up." It's funny.

man this thing has turned into a hillbilly fest, but it is a good thing to bring lynchburg and TRBC together. i bolted out early, but the time i had there last night was enjoyable.

Tell us more, Smoothy, tell us more. What was so "hillbilly" about it? The people or the programming?
Rural folks do tend to like a good fireworks show, and will come out of the mountains and farm country to see one.

the people.....a clientele of a lot of fat, looks like unbathed people at a fair in a k-mart parking lot. i did not have my camera, but a good idea for next year. i guess this makes me sound like a snob, but it was just my impression. they did have a lot of country music, but it was ok. it was a good program.

Well, you did nearly graduate from UVa.

Welcome to Lynchburg, Smooothie. Was this your first visit?

it was not that bad last year...it looked like a madison heights convention.

I must say, those fireworks last night were some of the best, if not the best, that I have ever seen...better than DisneyWorld, even.

As for it being a "Hillbilly fest,"-Smoothie, you need to come to Heart of Virginia in Farmville so you can see what real hicks, hillbillies, and rednecks are like.

Oh yeah, I parked on East Campus as usual, my parents were in their car in the parking lot over on North Campus when I was still in the Bill...by the time I got to my car and on 460, they were still in the parking lot
If you don't want to wait in traffic, park over on East...thats my recommendation. You'll have to walk some, but it does save time.

We don't need to go to Farmville, that's what you are for.

for some reason I feel the need to correct CJ it's not that rural folks LIKE a good fireworks show as much as it is they like to blow stuff up!!!! At least that how it seems to be here in "rural" Oklahoma.

Two words: Mullet Tag.

sorry the mullet is passe even in rural OK. I can't speak for the app or the smokies there could be some die hard renegade shine swillin mullet maniacs still in hiding.
