After TS
I did not attend the TS event in Bowling Green, KY but after reading the horror storys it makes me think just how lucky we are up here to have Full Pull Productions. I have been to other events and let me tell you they could stand to learn alot from this organization. Pullers are always going to complain about something (myself included) but if you really look at the grand scheme of things Rick puts on one hell of a show and im proud to say im part of it. FPP is a first class outfit that knows how to handle an event with qualified and knowledgable people that conduct themselves in a professional manor from start to finish. Im looking forward to another great year in 09. To Rick and all the FPP personel; Take a bow you deserve it!

Amen Brother! But in fairness, I'm not sure anyone could have handled the situation in Bowling Green.

If the proper measures would have been in place it could have been much better. The pull was a joke. Always has been.
When pullers load their truck on their trailer and spend there time and hard earned money to go to an event. All they ask is for the event to be well run and the event staff to be prepared. This is the Full Pull Productions Forum of this site. I would highly suggest you come to a FPP pull. You will see a huge difference. I get a huge kick out people who do not compete telling those that do that we do not know what we are talking about. If you pulled you might see things differently as we pullers do. But you know it all. This the Full Pull forum please go suck someplace else.

Im not at all saying you dont know what you are talking about. Please dont take it that way. All Im saying is, just because this year got messed up, dont blame it on Dennis and Sheila and never come again. It wasnt their fault that some idiots screwed it up for everyone else. Having to start an event 6hrs earlier than planned is not easy.
Plus, you say the pull has always been a joke. If it is indeed a joke, then why did you show up to pull in the first place?

I am not holding Dennis a Shelia soley responsible. Never did I think they wanted it to go down like it did. Sucks for all involved. It was bad for more reason than some idoits. The facilty was overwelmed. The organization was horrible.
I did not go to the pull. I knew better. Been there before. I also have been to pulls ran by those that ran this pull. Poorly organized. When Dennis proudly announced who was running the pull months before I new it was goint to be bad. They cant run a pull in there own back yard no less go to Kentucky and do it for Dennis. I said that and it got deleted. Well I was right. I also said that the attidude toward drinking at this event was going to bite them in the butt. And it did. I dont for one second think that Dennis really meant what he said about drunk driving a prostreet truck but he should not have said it. It presents the wrong image.
To really understand our point of veiw you need to come to a FPP pull. If you think TS is big you need to come up to Canfeild, OH September 6. This is one of the biggest on the East Coast. To pull there you must be invited. The parking lot at Canfeild it twice the size of the Fairground used for TS.

You must compete for points with FPP and be near the top in points.
This year FPP and the NTPA are working together at the Canfield Fair. It should be awesome.
