Richard B Russell Regional Airport

Came here for the Air Show. The Thunderbirds came here for this weekend. The entertainment was great if not the best.
The parking was terrible getting in as I describe it as «malfunction junction». It took one hour to drive one mile. Finally, had to park in the grass area of the airport.
Problem. We had to pay $ 20 for parking yet on the internet it said $ 10 per car. We also had to pay $ 20 for admission ticket. Their was no place to sit and had to stand in line for an hour to get bar b q. So, we went out to the truck to rest and watch air show from the comfort of our seats and make use or our tail gate for the first time. Then, just as the Thunderbirds were starting their show, this guy on a «Bad Boys“type vehicle comes up and tells us we can’t sit outside in our pickup truck to watch the air show. Yet, hundreds if not thousands were doing it. He fussed at others too but no one did what he said. He wasn’t a cop nor did he work for the airport. There’s military police, real police and aviation security only a footballs throw away and they didn’t say nothing. One of them even came up and talked to us and invited us to ride a helicopter. Most of all, I’m not going back in their and sit on the ground and watch airplanes do stunts. It’s my Chevy, my girl friend, and my tail gate. I just spent $ 120 here and in there, I see no rules at their website nor signs posted. Plus theirs some 40 year old drunks in front of my Silverado playing «toss the football». So, I moved my truck to the fence line where the guy on the «bad boys» type vehicle can’t come up and complain to us about sitting in our pickup truck to watch the air show.
Anyway, great Thunderbirds show. It was full of all types of entertainment. In summary. air show, helicopter rides, bands playing music, a bar b q festival and to end the day a fireworks show. Wow.
