My sentiments precisely...We spend the money making show worthy vehicles, we follow all of the rules for time and display and we assume all of the risk to our cars from spectator damage and theft...then they ask us to pay an admission fee. Well I participate only selectively and never at any show where alcohol is allowed or provided. I did a benefit show for a hospital once and they served champagne. After a few hours I had to pull drunk hospital staff out of my 39 Chrysler. After a few bad words that the cars were for their pleasure, my wife and I got in and drove right out of the display area.....A shame since the Glen Miller orchestra was playing beautifully for the benefit but alcohol and cars never mix.
