End of the Hot Dog Era
Well, we can officially declare the death of the Hot Dog Era. It is a day that will be long remembered. It has seen the end of Buck's Saber and has also seen the end of the 5 lbs of Hot Dogs.
Since we are eggs and bacon (and propane) deficient, it looks like my cooking duties are over. We are all lamenting the end of the Atlanta Line Cooking Show series as well. We had a few national syndication opportunities but it was going to be too much work and we decided to stick with our priorities.
We have surpassed our goal of 50 visitors who actually spoke. We celebrated by breaking a lightsaber and eating hot dogs. We've added quite a few to our numbers as well. Bev and Sarah are here and Ian will be sleeping in his car. Jason and Amy are here as well but I am not sure if they are staying. We've picked up a few more "car sleepers" too who drove by and decided to stay. That's impulsive camping if I ever heard of it. Eric (the flexible trooper) is here as well and is actually in armor.
Look for us at 11 on 11 and channel 2 as well. Our media prowess will be on display once again. It's getting colder and I need to put on some sweats so I'm signing off for now. See you in a few hours.

Nearly 24 hours left and I am getting anxious! Glad to hear the numbers are going up and you are getting some good coverage. I really would have loved to have been there. Oh well. A week late, a line short.
If you need breakfast just head over to the local Waffle House, Denny's or what-not and ask them if they saw the footage of the group on the news, or even better if by chance there is a photo or story in the paper.... if not, you could always use an old "jedi mind trick".
Have fun!; broken saber and all. Thanks for posting all the details for those of us who couldn't make it.
It's true, Atlanta really is the true center of the Star Wars universe!
Sorry to hear about the end of the hot dogs! If I had been there I would have been able to drop off some spaghetti or a lasagna or something yummy, but if I was going to bring food, Chris would probably just leave the country. ;)
Although I won't be able to recreate these incredible moments you are sharing on the grassy knoll, perhaps we can get a group together to see ROTS when I come in this summer. Almost like being there. :)
Thanks for the blog. It's really fun to read what you are up to!
