“So get a load of this. We’ve been invited to be a part of the 2009 Portland Baconfest put on by the Meat Show , a online radio show dedicated to Meat! We’re going to set up a mini ramp that came from some kid in Beaverton and drink beer and stuff. Here are the details and the flyer and photo of the 8ft wide mini ramp. You can only skate it if you’ve been drinking. The event is 21+
What: 2009 Portland Baconfest
Where: Between Burnside and Ankeny on 18th Ave. (SE)
When: Oct. 3rd (Saturday) from 3pm?
Huh?: Bacon Skateboards was invited to an event supporting Bacon so we’re going to set up a narrow mini ramp and drink beer from some of the other sponsors of the event (see flyer)
Huh?: There’s a $5 entry fee and i think it starts in the afternoon.”
Here’s the goofy mini:
