For the love of Pete! You have a 3-0 lead going into the second period and lose in double OT... When you have a team on the ropes, put them away!

RE: THE THREAD!!!
Did something I've never done before tonight. I went to a night time airshow. It was rained out, but it wasn't. It was free!, but it wasn't. Let's see if I can make this make sense. We were going to the airshow, about a mile from the airport it started down pouring rain. As we drove passed the airport people were running for the cars and the parking lot was emptying out fast. Figureing that this was a done deal, I didn't pull into the airport but drove around it just to see what we could see. Coming all the way around, the rain stopped. So I pulled in, most of the cars had gone and I pull right up to the entrance gate. I got out of the car and walked over to the gate to find out what was going on. People at the gate said word was the show was cancelled for tonight, but I could still pay to get in and go on the carnival rides set up or look at the static displays. I said no thanks. So, we are leaving, right before a get off airport property, I hear loud aircraft engines, I look up to see a formation of T-6's with flairs on their tails doing formation acrobatics. I quickly pull onto the grass next to the road. There're two police cruisers parked there. I get out and ask one of the officers if the show is back on, he said he hadn't heard. I asked if it was OK to stay here and watch what was going on now, he said NO you can't park here. So, with a few choice words under my breath I got back into my car and drove back down the back road to the airport. Seeing a sign saying venders and volunteers enter here, I did. Nice big empty parking lot, almost all to ourselves. Standing there a golf cart with one of the volunteers pulled up and told us that the entrance gate on this side was closed but we could just walk right in, so we did.
First thing of note was a twin bofors gun waiting to be restored. If you look close you can see me behind the gun.

It was not labled and there was no one around to ask. Too me it looks like a Scud-B, mounted on a MAZ-543 Transporter-errector.
