I host 50-something firearm enthusiasts from the Guns & Ammo website every Memorial Day weekend, and the crowd starts gathering about the Wednesday or Thursday beforehand, and some of 'em don't leave until Tuesday. That's been going on for around 15 years. If my long-suffering wife saw a bunch of truck nuts converging on our place, there would probably be a wake and a funeral to attend! She and several of the wives/girlfriends/significant others who attend that event put on a Saturday lunch during the shoot that rivals the target shooting for popularity! We've had visitors from as far away as Canada and New Zealand at times!
