I think I have my wife on board to go next year, as long as we do sight seeing along the way. She's looking up whiskey distillery tours

My browser will be stuck on this page for the next few days so I can live stream the fun.

Edit there's already a couple GTIs hard parked on the sidewalk with old people wondering why.

I've always wanted to go. Its proximity to the girls' birthdays isn't great, but I'll see what Hayley thinks about next year.

If it coincides with the long weekend I'll take a day and go if others are going. Would be nice to chill with you numbskulls.

The drive time will be shorter than driving to H2o in two clapped out diesels

[Maraschino Larry]

A flight to Dubai would be shorter

[Dreamstate]

Yup!

I implore y'all to attend GCVW in August.

Warm weather in BC is just... heavenly... also it's on the coast, and lots to explore with your respective families.

I am thinking of going myself this year.

[Dreamstate]

Welp. Thanks a lot Broswagen drivers.

I blame TMZ, participation awards, Instagram, and the stance blog culture.

Who puts on these shows? Is there some sort of organizational oversight?
In the hot rod world, there's the NSRA (National Street Rod Association), Goodguys, Right Coast... if shenanigans like I've heard about happening at vw shows happened at an NSRA event, there would be instant ejection from the event and membership revoked. There must be a way to filter riff and raff... no awards, and a year cutoff? say <1998?

The problem is, IMO the shows themselves aren't that important anymore. It's the mini meetups and the socializing on the days leading up to the show. The last two times to H2o, I only went to the show once, for an hour. Banning people from the show wouldn't change any of the shenanigans since they happen on the nights leading up to the show.

Secondly, it really is just a small group of people that cause all the trouble. If 20,000 cars visit a small town, and if one percent of the people want to do a burnout in the street, that's 200 cars doing burnouts. The vast majority of the visitors aren't littering, showing their boobs and peeing on show cars. But they stick out like sore thumb and gain all the attention, colouring the whole group with the same crayon.
