Throwback Thursdays - A Trip Down TBN Memory Lane

[2K2BIRD]

One of the few that I attended. Never saw it.

Should have been in your goodie bag.

Chalk it up to memory loss. It was 15 years ago. Hard to believe.

[RustyFrye]

Still have mine, but could not say which event it came from!!!

You could if you read the other side of the label.

Ours too but I don’t believe that we met. Around 100 cars as I recall. I’ll never forget the visit from Barney Fife.

This was the first event for Barb & I except for the local Mid-Atlantic gatherings. It was a great, great vent. The hotel and venues were fantastic. We think of "Barney" each time we watch Andy Griffith.

You are right Rusty, I did not read the fine print!!!!

My other big memory is how Phil decorated his car.

Have some great pics of Phil's car, before and after the race track.

Please post a few when you can. I think everyone would enjoy seeing them especially the newer members.

My other big memory is how Phil decorated his car.

My first event & I’ll never forget winning the Borlas at the drive in night. Funny how I had a former member tell me I had better not sell the Borlas since I was new and a girl (yes he did ) well look who’s still here and still have the system installed.

An event I won’t forget - so much fun and led to meeting so many friends.

This reminiscing is what I hoped this thread would accomplish. Let the stories continue.....

Thunder Fever in 2005 was the very first really long-distance (2450 mile) TBN event that we drove to in our T-Bird. Had a GREAT TIME there!

We especially enjoyed "Barney Fife", Bristol Speedway and the T-Bird poker-run through the mountains of Tennessee and North Carolina.

We still have our picture from the Thunder Fever Sock Hop on our kitchen countertop.

Met a lot of fun people there, who are great friends to this day.

FUN TIMES!

And here it is Thursday again.

Funny how that happens.

Here's a piece that only a few folks got during Thunderbird DESTINation back in October 2002. I made these for the back window of the cars in our caravan with the color appropriate for each car. Even added the bra if I knew they were using one..

So my questions are these:

1) Do any of our caravan members besides us still have their card?

2) Name the caravan members.

3) Which of those caravan members still have their car?

4) Which of those members are no longer with us?
