Ugh, I missed you guys by one week! I probably won’t be able to make it back to Chicago for this.

Wait, so we’re planning on Lou Malnati’s twice for dinner?

I don’t want to complicate things last minute, but if we’re already in downtown I would suggest we go to Pequod’s in either Lincoln Park, or slightly further north in Morton Grove. Switches things up a bit, and let’s people compare the best pizza in Chicago (Pequod’s) to what’s one of the two tied for third best (Lou Malnati’s). haha

If this is too much last minute, I totally get it. Just like the idea of doing a different place for dinner the 2nd afternoon/night.

Really looking forward to this weekend!

No no Lou Malnati’s is Sunday night, Saturay is a bit of “we are here at the car show together but we can break up in to smaller groups to eat if we wish” I’m some what trying to avoid excessive time in Chicago cause parking can get expensive

Ahhh gotchya. My mistake. :)

And yes, good point on parking. Unless you have SpotHero, it’ll cost you a good $40-60 to park downtown for an extended period of time.

Ike > Chris_K_F drives an FR-Slow 08/01/2016 at 17:38

Yeah, so the event in down town Chicago SHOULD have parking. I figure those of us who are from out of town can do some sight seeing afterwards if they wish and then we have a nice dinner at Lou Malnati's in Naperville later in the evening

Sounds like a plan to me!

The really nice thing, for me at least, is that the beginning and end of Saturday are both fairly close to my gf’s place in Bolingbrook. haha

Almost as if it was all planned for you... Maybe this is just like the trueman show? Ever look at the moon and wonder if it's looking back?

“If I have questions” can I get a sticker?

Yes you may have a sticker

Oh wait. That doesn’t work.

Now that you mention it. Hmm....

I’ll probably make lunch, going to hit up the monster truck show at Route 66 Raceway so won’t be joining any of the other activities.

Sounds good!

Since we’re in Florida and can't just zip up for this, how can one get an Oppo logo sticker or two?

Ike > sonicgabe 08/01/2016 at 18:07

The Oppomeet stickers I have, if you want one and I have some after the meet is over, I’ll mail you one. As far as the “oppo” stickers are concerned there are a few people who make them, every now and again someone does a big group buy of them, you could wait for that or get one off of etsy

sonicgabe > Ike 08/01/2016 at 18:46

Cool, thanks. I’ve been meaning to ask for a while, but keep forgetting.

Sure am! Lookin’ forward to meeting you in persom and finally getting to see the Smart!

Btw, I’ve been meaning to ask you for awhile. Does your Oppo handle have anything to do with the Stephen King book Mr. Mercedes? I’m assuming it doesn’t, but am just curious. Haha

Mercedes Streeter > Chris_K_F drives an FR-Slow 08/01/2016 at 22:23

And I get to see you and the the FR-S I hear a lot about!!! :)

About my name? Nah! I’m actually changing my name to Mercedes at some point in the future. Unfortunately, since I was born in Wisconsin, that means I have to get bottom surgery first and appeal with the courts. So...maybe a decade from now lol.

I chose Mercedes based on the thought I had one day: If I’m going to seriously do this, I have to have a new name. I’ll just choose the first name that comes to mind!

As for the Miss part of my handle, of was initially to establish my “change”, but it kinda just stuck. :)

Ah gotchya. Well that’s cool!

I figured it wasn’t associated with the book, as that’d be pretty dark. Lol Good read though. If you do read it, please don’t feel offended that I thought it may have something to do with your handle. Haha :)

I can’t come, I just found out about it, I don’t live anywhere near IL, I have a million excuses, but this is really cool, and I want to follow it closely.

Just a heads up for people going to the Arboretum in SouthBarrington on I-90, it’s been under serious construction for a while, including some exits and entrances being closed. I don’t know if the 59 exit is currently fully open or not. Just be aware and follow detours.

You should make a snapchat for this so everyone who can't go can watch along and see what cool stuff you guys are doing.

My bad I thought this was a different post! Yes, we will try and do as much live streaming, twittering, snap chatting (if I can figure it out) and periscopes -ing

Snapchat is pretty easy. Just one button to take videos/pictures and put them on your story. Post the snapchat name up here and everyone with a snapchat can add you and watch it for the nex 24 hours.

That’s unfortunate; if you happen to get some free time and wish to join us. Just text the number above and I'll let you know where we are at during that time!

You’re more than welcome to follow me.

I’ll surely be posting updates - Even though I’m not planning on making the drive down to Pontiac, I should be at the rest of it. Plus, that’s where I’ll post my cries for help if my car breaks down.
