That is one thing everyone remembers about Barrie...the awful heat! I remember going back to the hotel and hearing news reports of the highways around Montreal melting...the macadam was turning soft and cars were sinking into the road........... at the shows themselves, we had the dogs packed in ice all day long, and I do mean packed! I'm not a beer drinker, but those icy Molsons were much appreciated!!! We kept the men busy going back and forth from our set up to wherever they were buying those beers! I remember Kitty Drury, too...and when she put up that Newfoundland, I remember Gerlinda Hockla's costume....it looked like Halloween in the ring at the Garden that night!
