I'll try..
We'll be rolling 15 deep at all times so make sure you bring alot more beer for us then you would have.
We've got some special guests coming with us.
I'm not going to tell you who they are but I'll give you a couple clues;
Back in the day one guy had a pumpkin in his graphic and the other had a tiger.
Should be pretty easy if your a collector nerd.
If your hometown is on the flyer you better be there.
