TimDuke Posted November 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 I could call the guy see if he's lined one up yet. I may not have my car by then as I'm getting a divorce and may have to sell it cause I need money to get out of some debt. Here is the website. http://www.cantonhotrodshow.com/carshow.nxg There are 4 or 5 Lees in this area. The guy that was there last year will more than likely do it.

RogerDuke Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 I checked my schedule and I don't have to work that day. I've met Cooter, Luke and Rosco so it would be nice to add another Dukes star to my list. Have you talked to Daney? She does know about it, right? It would be nice if (Hazzardnet's) DaisyMae could make it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaisyMaeDuke Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 I wonder if Steve would do it... he's the other side of Cleveland...how far is that from Canton? I dont remember. Would be nice to see him and his Lee again. Who did it last year?I dont know if I can come or not...though it would be nice to see y'all again...hmmmmWhat day will she be there?

TimDuke Posted November 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2008 From Cleveland to Canton is a good hour drive maybe a touch over depending on which side of Cleveland he is. Ray Kohn my best friend did it last year but they sort of made him mad last year. He had a verbal agreement before the event that he could sell any merchandise while he was there then they changed that at the last minute.He wasn't allowed to sell anything while James Best was there so it probably cost him a pretty good chunk of potential change at the prime time to do so. So I'm sure IF he does it this year he' gonna get a written agreement so they can't renege on him again. He was pretty upset though so it's hard to say.There is a guy that has one in Canton so he is by far the closest other than me.I'd be second closest but mine is down in my dads extra storage building so if it snows a big time snow it'd be nearly impossible to get it out. Oh and she is only there on Saturday times have been posted in my earlier post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimDuke Posted December 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 I must make a retraction and an apology to my previous post. I got my story not quite straight. Ray had agreed to not sell stuff while James was there last year. So it was NOT the car shows promoters fault that he missed out on making some money.I whole heartedly apologize for taking something I witnessed out of context. Yes Ray is doing the show again this year as I spoke to him recently. It's too difficult for me to do it anyway as explained before,unknown weather conditions and where the car is currently stored. Ray said his car took some road salt related damage to some chrome pieces(that's the chance you take) and he flatbed trailered it there and back.

Hot Rod Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 Hi TimDuke, very nice retraction! All of us make mistakes now and then, however very few people admit to them when they do. So you are among the very best of people! Nice Job! Are you going to the Canton Hot Rod Show? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimDuke Posted January 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Plan on being there as soon as it opens that Sat and help out Ray if he needs any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dukefan Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 I sure wish I could go , Just once I would like to meet the whole cast, I have never met anyone from the Dukes of hazzard, I so wish all of them would come to the Moncton coliseum ,here In New brunswick Canada.Back in the '80's, I know Sorell Booke came, my friend has pics, but I was in high school at the time, so I never even knew anything about it.Just once.....

DaneyDuke Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 Plan on being there as soon as it opens that Sat and help out Ray if he needs any.Tim, how much is admission and parking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimDuke Posted January 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 (edited) Don't quote me on this cause I'm not positive. I believe admission is like 12-15 $. Parking I can't tell you it varies. If you make a trip to Summit Racing I believe they are selling discount admission tickets in advance at least they did last year. As far as what Catherine charges is unknown. From past experiences with her she's usually pretty reasonable.If you buy one thing from her she will usually sign anything else you brought for free within reason of course.I've seen people take advantage of this in the past especially John Schneider.I've seen fans bring like umpteen things for him to sign and slow down the line for everyone else.So people show some courtesy to others in line. I do expect a VERY long line especially since this is her first appearance in this area and I've spread the word on most of the Dukes boards. I waited 6 hours at Dukesfest one year just for her. She is originally from this area as well as she was born in Warren. It's also almost to the day that the 30th Anniversary of the first Dukes episode was aired.

Dixie_Nachelle01 Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 will we be able to take pictures with her? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimDuke Posted January 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Can't answer that either.She did at Indianapolis the one time I went to see her so I assume it's possible however this also severly slows down the line. I would say you will have to snap a quickie while you are up there with your own camera and I'm not sure how she is with flash photography either. I know James Best has a NO Flash pictures allowed policy. So bring a real good camera that will take good photos with no flash to be on the safe side.

RogerDuke Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 James Best has a no Flash policy? Good thing Rosco didn't. The show wouldn't have been the same without Velvet Ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
