The other week is the Soap Box Derby weekend where thousands of out-of-towners paint their cars in slogans supporting their kids, making them easy to identify.

Here in the Carolinas, we know tourists by the way they tuck their golf shirts into their jorts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZachTheZip Posted August 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 I also forgot about the LeBron bike-a-thon on Friday (sure to bring in a media circus and some interesting fan interactions) and the Twinfest in Twinsburg bringing in another several thousand. Every hotel room in Summit and Stark Counties will be booked for the weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
