Official MWC Pig Gig thread

[XJ&CHZ4ME]

What exactly is Clay County caviar? Carp eggs?

I would guess some sort of animal nuts??

 

[OverlandZJ]

Damn, this looks like a great time...

No pig yet. Jim is in Michigan all week for work. We'll get the piggy details of the hog worked out when he gets back. It won't be a problem, we gots hoggy farms all over around here.

If you want some Clay County Caviar, you'll have to be there.

 

[HaleYes]

Someone needs to bring plates, forks, spoons, and nakins.

I'll get the charcoal Trav.

 

[Prepmech]

We'll also need someone to bring some buns, and a large quantity of "Sweet Baby Rays".

I'll get the sauce and charcoal. 60lbs of charcoal should be plenty right Trav? IIRC, we used 40lb last year.

17th Street sells sauce as well.
I'm not sharing my home stash though.


Lets not forget to get donations this time. Last year, we totally forgot about it until most everyone had left. There were a few very generous donors, and with that we barely broke even. I plan to get a piggy bank. Paint it black and slap a MWC sticker on it. That's where the donations need to go. I wouldn't mind giving a little monetary thank you to Jims mother. She's been generous enough to let us use her property and barn, the least we could do it cover the cost of the water and power we'll use.

How late of a day does this shin-dig last? Is it an all nighter, or do things wind up fairly early? Just checking before I make plans to drive that far.

Yeah, that will be plenty.

No set plans really. We started winding down about dark last year. Then we sat around for a few hours of chit-chat.
Sean and Lar slept in the driveway last time.

My buddy who might be coming with asked me an interesting question...

Is there a caliber limit???

I told him I didn't think so, but if he was planning on bringing a bazooka, he needed to get enough rockets for everyone to shoot..... :spin1:

Bingo.

FYI:
I know the location of 2 Barrett .50 cals. They're aren't too far away either.

 

[Prepmech]

Sounds like you guys need to make some 1" thick slinger dingers this year.

Doubtful.

Have you priced steel lately?

I'll be surpried if someone hasn't stolen our dingers for scrap!

They are still there. We have plenty of tree stumps for the bazooka & the .50s. JIM.

It is decided, I am going to make it, maybe with wifey in tow. Now I just hope that it is worth the 7 hour drive. After the days festivities of the shooting, are there any "adult beverages" that are to be consumed of the evening, or is it strictly a non-alcohol event. Just wanting to make sure and not to offend Jim or his family. Looking forward to the trip and event.

There will be beverages. It's not a sloppy drunken party by any means. Casual, social drinking is welcome.
