What happens to your event when it loses its home?

I'm in SoCal and unfortunately it's fairly common for Cars and Coffee meets to get booted from their current locations. It's always the same reason, a few bad eggs showing off, causing noise complaints, and presto, the meet is kicked out. While not exactly the same as a business closing, both cause the event to be relocated.

I'm still waiting for Cars and Coffee to come back to Dallas. They lost their last site in 2018.

How many Ford Mustangs does the tollway retaining wall need to meet to close down a Dallas Cars and Coffee?

It actually got too big and too complicated and the owner of Classic BMW got tired of paying his people to move all the cars from the back lot once a month, only to be overrun with complaints from people whose cars were denied entrance because they weren't special enough.

Then Richard Rawlings offered to move it to Gas Monkey Live. Shortly after that he ended up in a lawsuit with the guy who ran his restaurant, then COVID hit, Gas Monkey Live was shut down and then went away. I got to hear all about it because Mrs. Snowdoggie is the Creative Director for the Ad Agency that Rawlings uses and she actually designed a lot of those Gas Monkey T shirts.

Classic BMW did a very good job for a good long time and ended up getting E36 M3 for it. They even set out water for those of us who brought our dogs to the event. They are good guys. If I ever need to buy a BMW, I will go there.

I didn't say anything about Classic BMW or GMG.  There are plenty of videos and memes about Mustangs and Dallas C&C.  My favorite video is the one where the Plano PD has lights and sirens going and arrive at the crash about 3 seconds after it happened.  Morons killed C&C.
 

Dallas has "roadshows" now so that's cool, right?  
 

DFW is textbook "how to lose a venue." 

Welp, last night didn’t go as planned: sheets of rain as I got on I-4–not in the Miata–and it didn’t let  up as I got closer to Orlando. Very low visibility and slow-moving traffic. 

I finally stopped to eat and then headed back home. (Only light rain while heading back home.)

(And, yeah, I know I initially parked on the line. I was trying to avoid a truck with trailer that was blocking most of the spaces when I pulled up.)

Hey, Dave, that's the same excuse I use! "Dude, don't get mad at me, there was a car there before that was over his line, so I had to park this way."

I kid.

Whatttt? No way. That's such an iconic spot. Orlando doesn't need another high rise

Ace cafe in Orlando opened in 2017, I was there.

Just seems like 20 years...
