The show is free, so why not park your car with the other Buicks? If you don't wish to, there is parking outside the lot for visitors.
But as Diaz said, there is designated Buick parking inside - we keep them all together. There are also Buick specific trophies. And a nice goody bag. No comment about the other makes - Weather's looking good - keep your fingers crossed!

Well, it looks like all went well with Prasad! He moseyed in later in the day.
We had 66 Buicks registered, with probably at least another 10 non-registered. This was one of our biggest shows ever - 300 cars registered! How did you guys like the goody bags? Did everything run smooth for you? And I wish you had introduced yourself - I would have loved to put some names and faces together! Thanks for showing up and sharing your holiday with us!

Nice, very nice! I rolled through around 3pm. I walked around the Buicks a couple times but never saw you. Lots of nice rides up there. Never knew there where so many TB's in Chicago.
