NWFAN's most generous giveaway....free beer....
1/3/2009 9:26 AM
Just kidding about the beer.  Ok peeps.  You all prolly know about the road  trip to Daytona and Volusia we are about to embark on right?  Well, most of you anyway.  If not you are definately out of the loop here.  jk & lol;

And of course you all have noticed that the one and only NWFAN is getting near the 5k postie thingie here.  Yes, it is true.  I know that you mega posters find that very, well, shall I say, bfd.  But I am ahead of someone here right?

So just for fun how about a contest to guess what state I will be in when the most miraculous event takes place? Here are your choices.  Oregon, Idaho, Utah, Nevada, Arizona, Texas, Louisiana, Bama, Miss, and Fla.  Did I miss any?  The trip back includes S. Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Arkansauce,Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, and California.  Man, I am tired of driving already!!

So, very carefully calculate that the drive is only about 250-300 miles a day.

Gifts for 1st, 2nd, 3rd place.

The most generous giveaway gift will come from the state in which the 5k post is from.

Remember peeps we are leaving from Yakima Washington next Saturday  the 11th. so there you go and have fun.

Oh yeah, almost forgot, only one brainteasing guess per entrant,    But we know that some of you have many alts so that will be to your advantage, lol

Have fun............................................


And no Bill, we won't be coming through the great commonwealth of Virginia.  Wait, how far are you from Darlington?  Is the spare bedroom cleaned?  Nah prolly not so nevermind........

My guess is that you will post your 5k post in God's Country - the great State of Tennessee!!!  Do I get double the prize if you are at my house when you post it???


I just realized that you have more posts than me - I've been here about 100 years longer than you -

Maybe I'll get to 5,000 one day...

Hmmm....

There are a couple of clues in your post...

Backwoods places like Idahoe, Lowsyana, Arkansucks, Oklahomo, and New Mehico probably don't even have the internets so that eliminates them.

You said most generous giveaway.....so.....



I'm going to have to agree with MizzJLB that it will be in God's Country - Texas.

Since you've got 131 posts to go, I'll say you'll be back in Washington when you hit the 5000 mark. If I wasn't guessing Washington I'd agree with CMA and say the great state of Texas. It was flat warm in Ft. Worth today.
 Unless you have an air card you won't be able to post. Heck, even with my air card I can't post.

250-300 miles a day?? Geez....you ARE old.

I'd say Oregon, since you'll probably be back home by February sometime.

All of the KOA's ahve wireless and so do the parking lots of Holiday Inn Express, Librarys, and the like.  I will be posting on a regular basis just to see what is going on here.  Besides I would miss my R1 family ya'know?  The 5k thing will  definately happen before we get to Florida in early February.   So, good luck to all..

Well hector, got ripped off for about 1200 posts back in 06' when they changed over (again).  I think 08' I began the year with aout 1500 or so.  And yes, being in your lovely home for the 5000th could be a possibility.  Therefore you are saying that  you   I  can (be swayed) one way or another?

So, what's your favorite meal?  I am a heck of a cook!  Also, we have a wireless router in the house so you can use your laptop to post as many posts as you want, right up to 5,000!  AND we have beer on tap, a big screen TV and PINBALL! Of course, the pinball games have to wait until you get your 5,000th post - then we can put free play on for you and you can play all night!
