Indy1500 this weekend

[MickeyBlueEyes]

What a Saint Patty's day treat. I will be there with my son in the stroller, wearing green. Hope if you bounce off of me in the aisle, that you say excuse me, like people do at most gun shows. I'm trying to instill manners in my son early. He is picking up alot of social cues and I don't woant him acting like a turd. The moral decrepitude of the people at flea markets is repulsive. People bounced off my stroller with my boy in it and tried stepping over it. My son doesn't need a ball sack in his face, isn't that child molesting or something.

Well it certainly is your right to do it how you want but for me, a crowded 1500 is the last place I would take a child in a stroller. Sometimes you are better off leaving them home.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Seems to me a stroller would be more trouble than it was worth.

Don't be THAT guy

Don't bring a stroller to a damn gunshow, you are the reason the isle gets jam packed.

I agree....if possible find a sitter for him or tote him on foot or on your shoulders. Strollers are nothing but a PITA to ALL other attenders.

Yep my dad took me to gunshows when I was very young, and he made me walk or no gunshow lol

This will be my first gun show but if I bump into you, I'll be polite. I'm trying to do some research on gun show etiquette myself so I do not offend anybody. Any tips/suggestions for a first timer?

Just put some spikes on the wheels, and some spears on the front and you'll be fine.

Make the kid walk. Those strollers become high capacity ammo totes at gunshows...no exceptions!

I always seem to have trouble getting through because of men who insist on stopping in the middle of the aisle to just stand and talk.

I'm there all 3 days, all day long and I see it all. Stopping and talking is the biggest problem, strollers are a close second though but I won't begrudge someone bringing their child and teaching them young. You want to talk, take it to the end of the aisle or outside.

Should that tell you something?

Most people are courteous enough to try to avoid the obstruction that you create with your "Bonding" with your young child.

This was discussed after last 1500.

It's the Daddy Bonding with the child mode.

That (In the opinion of MBE) is your problem-NOT-HIS.

But we MUST teach the toddlers in a heavily crowded public event!!


OK, MBE....Have at it............Bill.

Ok, so I just decided to not go and bonded with my son in the garden and where I was planting fruit trees
