I'll wave to you as you go past my house - I won't go there anymore.

I may be up there for the final weekend. One of my high roller buddies has a block of suites at the Atlantis reserved and has me almost coerced into going. I was there the year they had the big riot, kinda soured it for quite a few people. To me it looked like the cops caused more problems than they solved. PM me a phone # maybe we can collide somewhere in the crowds.

I thought there were some BIG meetings held over the handling of the  riot that year.

I too heard from people the cops did not really help the situation, yet some bull headed folks would not listen to the cops...... that usually does not go over well.  :shock:

The riot crap was a few years ago. Everything has been cool since then. I wont be staying for the final weekend cause I gotta get back to LA for the Goodguys Race in Pomona.

You should, at least once. It's actually a good event. Sometimes it seems like every business and casino in the Reno/Sparks area with a decent sized parking lot has a car show going on. The first year I went it looked to me like every hot rod in the western US was there. When you decide to go, make your room reservations many months in advance. If I make it up there I'll snap some pics.

Check out this sight for some photos of this years HAN. Http://www.davepeetersphoto.com

It was great. Nights were cool and the cars were too.

The FONZ, Henry Winkler just moved there and was one of the many celebs there.

Got see a lot of cars I had not seen before and ran into a few people I knew from other parts of the country.

My coupe did just fine and made all the cruz nights til I left Thursday.
