Funny thing happened on my way to my son's Robotics competition this morning.

    My son's robotics team is competing in the district championship games, which just happens to be taking place very close to the Sands in Pa. Oddly, upon getting off the exit for Stabler Arena, my car just directed itself to the Sands and BAM, my 300. turned into 600. in about 4 minutes.


    Hope his team does as well as I just did!

    Sounds like you got a warm greeting from the old steel furnaces that graced that site!
    Nice win! Best of luck to your son and team!

    My Chevy Prizm only seems to find mechanics and auto parts stores! :cry:

    Congrats on your fortune--and on your very intelligent vehicle!

    Reminds me of the old joke about muscle cars in my younger days: They could pass everything but the gas station.

    How'd your son's team do, @Happygirl21 ?
    On to state? And another casino? :D
