Well. I owe everyone an apology. I have no photos of the innards of Fantasy of Flight.
Since a new mall was opening on this day We left my house early to beat the crowds on the highway. We drove 24 miles out of our wayand $2.50 of tolls. As we were approaching the area we noticed many people walking along the back roads with what appeared to be blankets and lawn chairs.
We followed the signs and finally pulled in to a large grassy meadow adjacent to the hangers at Fantasy of Flight.
Seeing two lovely ladies walking alone, carrying pillows and pads I rolled down the window and asked where they were going. Both smiled and said "Fantasy of Flight! Do you want to join us??
WELLL. I and my buddy being health young (well...dirty old men) said yes, Hell yes...
I almost crashed the car parking it and we joined the ladies..I asked Why the pillows and pads and was told "Well..you know.. like it lasts till midnight (it was 10am). Thinking this a new method of flirting I rolled my shoulders back and said "At least".
The dream now gets shattered..We approached the gate.. The girls walked through after showing VIP badges and looked back at us beconning us to follow...Alas.....:( :( :( We had no VIP passes or even tickets. Nor did we even know what the hell was going on.....
Fantasy of Flight was CLOSED and there was a ROCKTOBER Concert with ten bands there for the day. Tickets were being scalped at $250 at the gate...
Not even a stop at Hooters on the way home took away the disappointment of missing Fantasy of Flight.........and ............
Oh well... maybe next time we will call first..
