GWSmith Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 im leaving at 5:00 am...yep driving into the storm:1eye: I got to meet Andy today at the show...his face was alot like mine. We both looked like kids in a candy store...lol I also got to meet and talk with RandyO and his Dad. We were able to talk for a couple hours! As expected they were real people and treated me like they've been neighbors for my whole life...good people! I also got to talk to a couple of the Primos guys, Stan Potts, Matt Morrett, Ralph & Vicki C.....these people just kind of graduated towards me and started talking. Thought about it awhile then realized that standing next to Randy Oitker had a little something to do with that....LOL Had a great first day and met alot of great people who came by the Warmbag booth!

BRHNTR Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 My wife and I drove out Friday getting to Harrisburg just as the driving was starting to get bad. Went to the show all day saturday. We where not in the first building 2 seconds and we ran into Tim at the Cabelas booth, what a super nice guy! Walked the show till almost 5:00. Got to talk to Stan Potts, Tim, Chuck Adams and of course had to have my picture taken with Lee and Tiffany. The halls where easy to walk in because not alot of people came on Sat because of the snow. Got up and drove home early Sunday morning and now its back to work!!!

ruttinbuc Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 (edited) I was at the show yesterday and had a great time with RandyO and RandyO Sr. Randy continued to impress with his shooting skills as I watched him shoot the World Record six arrow, six target shot! I did the usual tour and saw most of the show that I wanted to see. After going there for so many years it all starts to look the same. I am sorry I didn't get to meet GW Smith as he left the show early. I did get a chance to to meet Ralph and Vicki as well as Rick and Julie Krueter for the first time. Talked with Julie for quite a bit. What a wonderful person she is. Down to earth as you can get and what a smile. :camera: I also revisited with the Lakosky's, The Kiskey's, Waddell, Nick Mundt and T-bone. They all recognized me from events past. Even got a hug from Tiffany. :tt1: I was supper impressed with all of their support and attention to a couple of handicapped boys that were at the show. To say their interaction with them was touching would be an understatement. I'll post pics when I get a chance.

RTPROFamily Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Mike, Those handicapped boys went hunting in IL.( they are from PA.) with Randy last fall.They are brothers with the same disease.Less Nine, I think it is called. Randy told them he would take them to meet Lee and Tiffany. Randy said they were so happy to get to meet them and so was their dad! Randy said he also has some pics. Look forward to seeing them Mike! Randy is traveling through Ohio at 5 mph and snow covered roads! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
