Shawn I'd say that if you make a 45min appearance w/ a 15min or so cool down...repeat...then we break for a bit. But we can do time incriments. Last year they had a cool down tent for the characters out on the field which was nice....then we went into the air conditioned bldg for a bit.

I just know the kids were all asking about Vader last year...so I told em he was skeered of me Wink Hope you can make it!

That would be awesome if you could come down! We do a couple hours in the morning, break for lunch, then a couple hours in the afternoon. We also have a safe area that we can take our buckets off and have some water and stuff. I know last year all the kids were asking where darth vader was. Obi made up a pretty good bs story on the spot to tell them!

I'm going to also bring a cooler of Gatorade for us as well. Any other drink requests? And to make things easier I drive a big ol red F150 with a mythosaur skull on the back and I'll park by the ATM in the Walmart parking lot.

Not sure we can all be there for the opening ceremony ~0830 but I was planning on leaving Mustang around 0700 which would put me there about 0830 I think.

Shawn, hope the interview went great man...hope to hear from you that you are coming with us Wink

I seriously doubt my neck/shoulders could do an all-day event. Is there a particular time that is better to be seen? Like what is the best time slot? My new helmet puts a hurting on me after about 2 hours. I'm sure with breaks where I can take the helmet off, I could pull 3 hours or so. I'm also concerned about the heat more than usual, because it also does not have any airflow through the helmet. The two mouth grills are it and yes, I do have a fan blowing outward which helps.

Anyone bringing a handler? I won't have one with me.

I'll be bringing a handler as well. Honestly even if you were only able to go out there for 30 minutes in the morning and 30 in the afternoon, the kids would be absolutely thrilled.

As far as time, just let me know when you guys want to meet up and I'll be there. I'm not the one that has to make a far drive.

Sorry I didn't make it. I couldn't sleep last night and was up late because of it. Hope it all went well.
