Official TCG at Chicago Auto Show Thread *updated for 2016*

I'd get tired of standing around Mustangs for 10 minutes. I couldn't imagine 10 hours.

Will laptops or tablets be present to enroll new TCG members?

Great idea!

 

[skeezer]

I'm just going to give everyone Mook's phone number and say call and ask for membership information.

Is this for all the people with flip phones?

 

[Guess who's back]

17th and 18th i can be there both days. But...... I'm not a very liked person. But just saying, I "could" be there if it came down to it. PM with further questions.

 

[Mook]

I know who this is. Come on

 

[Smokinhot]

I am available to do it the 21st. Either full day or half day. The girly and I planned on going that day anyway.

 

[Mook]

Added. So far you're the only one to 100% commit

[MENTION=5]Mook[/MENTION] or @ Bru, quick question. For the car's that will be there, is there a lock box in which the keys will be in or will the owners keep possession of them?

I know their are a lot cooler cars than my ST but I am still willing to donate for this event.

[Mook]

Easier to show potential members the site, especially member's vehicles, guns, food, sports, etc. sections.

Fuck it, show the Nudes too!

Go to the auto show to check out cars. Walk out signed up to a diverse, well rounded local forum that addresses a number of hobbies (foundation being auto enthusiasts).

I won't be able to work the event but let me know if Rayjus can help you with any needed items.

 

[boostedguy05]

Im just gonna leave the keys in the car. Its insured. Take it.

 

[smug]

I can help out on the weekends. Not sure what day yet

Great idea with the laptops, Dave.

Would be good to have printed material, too. If someone has questions about the site but doesn't want to wait in a laptop line, have printouts or brochures available with the site details.

They have WiFi, right? IF anyone has a TV or projector and the venue allows, you could use Google Cast to throw a laptop display up onto a screen. If you're bored, find some good site videos (work safe, of course) to flip up on the screen. People will stop to watch.

How about a board with site logo where guys who weren't able to get their cars into the show could post pics and short descriptions of their cars? Leave it at the edge of the rope. Would make a great backdrop for photos. TCG and sign up info in the middle and car photos all around.

I can do the 15th, from 9am to 4pm.

*EDIT*

Found the answer to my parking question.


"McCormick Place offers on-site parking. There are three main McCormick Place lots: A, B & C.

Lot A: $21 (or $30 after 16 hours)
Lot B: $14
Lot C: $21
*After 6 p.m. during Chicago Auto Show dates, the parking rate is reduced to $10 at all three lots.

Parking fees can be paid by cash or credit card; VISA, MasterCard and American Express are accepted. Parking lots are open throughout event hours. Overnight parking is not available, and there are no in-and-out privileges."
