I think we need to have "the running of the vans" at the Expo. Kind of like the running of the bulls in Spain. We can have a bunch of cargo vans running down the parking lot with all of the straight truck and tractor trailer O/O's trying to dodge them. It can be a race of man verses machine as they all make their way towards the Load 1 barbecue to get them free hamburgers and hotdogs. But before the running of the vans I'd suggest attending the blessing of the trucks! All I gotta say is you better watch out - when you tell a a bunch of frugal cargo van drivers that they're giving away free food they're gonna stampede like a herd of hungry cattle.
The running of the vans!

Like the idea but for clarification it's not a Load One BBQ, it's a Drivers BBQ - all put together by drivers and contributors of this community. 
Load One and drivers from all carriers are welcomed to join in the fun on Saturday at the Expo @ 5pm for the BBQ feast!!!

Oh, I know that Lawrence. I was just reading that Load One might be lending you guys a barbecue this year. I guess I didn't clarify that.
Tell me Clarese now that you're a dispatcher do you still her the alarms chirping in the parking lot, the rap music thumping at midnight, the soft hint of diesel in your lungs as you breathe, the rednecks changing trailer tires and reving up their engines? How does it feel Clarese to know that you're only one paycheck away from beeing poor van trash! lol
