Spectators bring in the fliers because of the $2 off admission coupon. Checks are mailed out within a week after the event. The program pays well if you get enough fliers out. There are successful, repeat promoters every year at every location.

    Damn. I won't make it out to G-Ville but I'm checking that schedule and Commerce is coming up in a couple months. I'll probably hit that up since it's a shit-ton closer to me. Might even run my little car even though I'll more than likely get spanked. It'd be fun anyhow.

    Are you guys going to stay the night, or driving back the same day?

    I think I'll leave early morning, and drive back home after the event.
    (Leave at 5AM, and be back by 12). Anyone else doing that?
