John from Tucson has mentioned it is time for the annual Phoenix-Tucson challenge.
So... I'm thinking Karls favorite Mexican place in Globe.
John what do you think?
Does the date work for you? Would you like a different date and place?

Chalos is the name of the place. Remember to get the adovada. Outstanding!

Weather permitting, it works. Ice cream award to be made at the Dairy Queen in Superior?

At least the Dairy Queen in Superior is used to taking Tucson John's $2-bill-whorehouse-money. They've done it so often.

The challenge is to see how many cars each club can muster. The club with the fewest cars buys ice cream for the other. So far, Tucson has not won and John has shelled out a small fortune for Dairy Queen for the Phoenix club. It gets a little closer each year though.

Karl, If it's a green food group it's not fit for human consumption. LOL LOL

Seriously???? Who would ever agree to that??? (well, John, obviously...) Let's see, there are what, 10 or 12 cobras in Tucson and about 100 or so in Phoenix? That's a sucker bet if I have ever heard one! My vote is for none of the Tucson guys to go and let the Phoenix guys buy their own ice cream. Besides......it's February! Who the heck eats ice cream in the middle of winter????

Not a problem. If you guys do not show we go anyway.
Last time the car count was close. I believe we won by 3 or 4 cars. Just because we have more cars does not mean all come out.

I just sent John an email telling him if less than 8 cars from Tucson show up this will be just a fun get together. However, if they have 8 and we have less then I buy.

Again......where is the challenge? Does any one else not see this as a lopsided bet and really unfair? On the runs I have been on with the guys here locally there have been only 3 or 4 cars total. I would like to join you, but I am not going to pay for that privilege! At least give us some odds..............

First.. You do not pay. John does. Just like when we lose I pay. No money out of your pocket. John and I agreed to this many years ago. Mostly it is a fun get together.
Again club rules apply.

Mike, I hope you know I am just jerking your chain......... If my schedule allows I will be sure to be there. I'm not sure how long you have been in Phoenix, but there is a certain rivalry between our two towns. Being a Tucson native I know that contrary to popular belief Phoenix is not the center of the universe......

Thank you Karl.. While not a native I have been here since 1970. I know about the rivalry... Yes Phoenix is the center of all. Tucson likes to be known as a sleepy college town, and very liberal.

I'll give you that, and to be honest our city leaders are a bunch of buffoons.... I have to say in my own defense I am anything but liberal, but I have to be loyal to my home town!

I am still confused though over why anyone would want ice cream in the middle of winter......
