THE BIG MIKE ROAD SHOW - 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY PICS ON PG 769


Recommended Posts

Either way, it will be one HECK of a GLOMP ATTACK by 2 people.

 

And yes, Mike, I will share the originals with you, and Lou, and who ever else was in your group. Just want to wait until I know of a good place I can upload a third of a gig.

Looks like big Mike is having a great time! Guy T. Koepp is jealous!

 

Guy "Sorry about the tragic loss of your buss driver, but all good things must come to an end. It is better to have loved and lost, than to have never loved at all. My sympathy is with you Big Dude!" Koepp

Hello Fantastic Friends!!!!!

 

 

Big Mike coming to you LIVE from Power Park in Finland!!!

 

 

This is the last country to visit.

 

 

This is also the most Northern Park in the World!

 

 

Just to recap everything we have done since I last updated:

 

* We visited Skara Summerland

 

* We visited Grona Lund

 

* The same owners own both parks and they treated us like kings and queens!

 

* Unlimited bracelets for free food and drinks all day at the park, whatever stand you wanted!

 

* Rode a one of a kind S & S coaster.

 

* Rode my first Ball Coaster, Insane!

 

* Took an over night ferry with lots of late night shananigans with the TPR crew.

 

* Found 170 Euros on the floor in the bathroom on the ferry, which is $237!!!

 

Big Mike was asked to dance by a gal from Finland on the ferry and was constantly gliding her hand across Big Mike's chest where the Big Mike logo is saying "Big Mike"!

 

* Just set a Power Park Speed Record on thier wooden coaster by loading it with the fattest TPR members and riding it in racing position!

 

* The sun is still up and it is almost midnight!

 

* There is going to be a HUGE TPR Go Cart race tomorrow morning on this MONSTEROUS track outside my hotel window! 40 entries!

 

* Over half of the Big Mike Valuable Reader Pins have been asked for already, they are a HOT item!!

 

Theres lots and lots more, but thats all I can think of right now, so on to the update!

 

 

Peace, Big Mike

 

 

PS - A special hello to a new Big Mike Valuable Reader, Anthony's mother who is following the trip here on The Big Mike Road Show!

Hey Friends!

 

I got a special request from one of the super hotties I have met on the road with The Big Mike Road Show, so I always made a promise to myself to satisfy every one of them!

 

So here is the request:

 

"I have one request: can you take a picture of the light outside around 10 or 11 pm? Or even later, if that's possible, you don't have to stay awake for one photo... I just want to know how dark it gets over there... Thanks in advance!"

 

 

Peace, Big Mike

Throwing in a Big Mike picture just in case any of The Valuable Female Big Mike Readers miss him!

Why do I get the feeling that I am glad that there were no videos of the dancing posted?

 

I have not seen Terrence getting any statue credits yet, or will those be shown on his TR?

 

I still never look at Snoopy characters quite the same at Cedar Point.

Random off topic comment, but I was at Applebees in Alhambra, CA yesterday and as you may or may not know, the waiters all have to wear this little tag that states who their hero is. Well, one of them said 'BIG MIKE.' Coincidence?

Hey Friends!!!

 

Friday morning already here in Finland, and you know what that means, right????

 

 

IT IS TIME FOR THE 1ST ANNUAL TPR GRAND PRIX!!!

 

 

Big Mike personally wants to win the whole thing and get the 1st place trophy, but after a last place finish out of 6 in a pre-race qualifier at another park, hopes are not too high!

 

Big Mike's weight is the problem, and that seems to over ride his expertise in go carting!

 

So now we have adjusted our goals for the big race as follows:

 

 

1st place - A dream come true, but not likely.

 

Top 3 trophies - Usually a given, but too many light weights racing... I would say I would need the perfect ride.

 

Top 10 - Before the qualifying race a few parks ago, I would sy this would have to happen for me to be happy, but now THIS is my goal!

 

Top half of the field - If I don't get this, it is going to be a bad day for the Big Man. For those that don't know, Big Mike is a born winner and it will haunt him forever not to finish in the top half!

 

 

 

40 RACERS, WHO WILL WIN????????????

 

 

As a Valuable Big Mike Reader, you now have a chance to win another one of those FANTASTIC AND MARVELOUS Big Mike Valuable Reader Pins that have swept the nation!!

 

 

Guess who will win the 1st EVER Theme Park Review Grand Prix!!!!!

 

 

One guess to everyone.

 

 

The guessing begins NOW!!!!!

 

 

I am off to get prepared for the big race

 

 

As always, trip participants are not allowed to enter

 

 

Peace, Big Mike

I would have taken Ice Bat again, but he's already spoken for. I'll pin (get the pun?) my hopes on Elissa. She's light, and if weight is a big factor, then that should help. If Elissa should win, I would decline accepting the prize since I already won an awesome BMRS button. I'm just playing for fun.

 

Looking forward to more updates.

My first guess has already been done, so I'll go for Larry.

 

Thanks for the update Big Mike! Haha, that looks like great fun! It's weird to see you guys on Viking Line as I've been on the same ferry so many times!

 

See you guys within a day !
