Sybersnott Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 Reading a blurb in a muscle magazine quoting Vic Boff... he states that next year's AOBS dinner will probably be the last one. He is tired of doing them, and the 20th one seems like a good number to stop at. So to all those who want to attend next year's event, please do so. It may be the last one. Bummer!

Guest Mark Posted November 1, 2002 Share Posted November 1, 2002 This would truly be a tragedy to end such a great salute to the pioneers. On the other hand, Vic is old enough and has done enough that he deserves to rest on his laurels. Perhaps someone else affiliated with AOBS could step forward and take a greater role.

Sybersnott Posted November 4, 2002 Author Share Posted November 4, 2002 Mark, The original intention of the get together was to celebrate the birthday of Milo Steinborn (if I'm not mistaken). It was such a success that they decided to make it a yearly event. Next years will be the 20th AOBS dinner... so Vic decided to stop it at 20. It is a real shame, and a great event to those who do attend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobsterone Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 There's always the OH dinner here in the UK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul valpreda Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 I think we should start our own annual dinner for grip enthusiasts. It would have to include beautiful bikini babes and we could have it at Joe Roark's house! I don't think he'd mind... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sybersnott Posted November 4, 2002 Author Share Posted November 4, 2002 Roark's Roast!! I love the idea!! I'll start to work on the mailing list right now!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drassk Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 I really picked the wrong time to get into this stuff. First I find out that Slim Farman was performing right near the city I live in now...2 years before I moved here. Now I find out that this is my last chance to get in on the AOBS...well, time to start saving up cash to make it to New York I guess...

Roark Posted November 5, 2002 Share Posted November 5, 2002 I am in the midst of moving these days. A tent near south/north/eastern Arizona near the Ohio border. Our new house will not have bikini babes (my wife can be obstinate at times) but will feature a National Geographic moat requiring the hand over hand pulling on a 3" diameter rope to gain access. Once across the drawbridge, a farmer's walk up the stone staircase with an Inch in one hand, a Millennium in the other, two steps at a time. Luch is at 11:30 am, and is refused to those out of breath from the sissy entrance requirement. But thanks for thinking of me, Paul & Snott, but I am aPauled at what I would describe as Snott a good idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jeff0 Posted November 5, 2002 Share Posted November 5, 2002 Good luck getting bikini babes to attend a dinner full of "grip" enthusiasts. :0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sybersnott Posted November 6, 2002 Author Share Posted November 6, 2002 I guess it would be strictly "hands off" for those bikini babes! :p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
