Well I have different ideas but getting to fly is a different story. I think having frozen t shirt contest would be awesome and give the crowd to join in the fun. I seen alot of people do this and the crowd really get int it. For the GUYS how about Montana Bikini contest of the local girls to show it all off. This would get more people to come and see what is is all about. I have seen alot of people come to these events but there is no crowd contest to keep them on their toes. If I was a person watching these show I would love to seen we the people to join in contest. I think Holdens is thinkig about a glow off and show off the neon scene.
