Anyone know why? I was planning on going this year, and bringing the Military Bronco. I was really looking forward to it.

My guess is they are going to show up at SuperCelebration. I got tired of calling to ask if they would be there at supercel year after year.

That's a good thing, but still, it was a chance to see some different Broncos. Plus it usually had the biggest Roadster turnout of all the events.

All the other shows this year crammed schedules. I believe Jeff is planning on attending SC. Not sure yet if other JBG members are doing the same. Let's hope so!!! And Jimmy, I will post another thread about seeing if we can get a roadster gathering at SC this year. Spoke with Tom (BD Mag) yesterday and he said that would be awesome to have a large turnout!!

That would be great to see a big U13 turnout, even though mine isn't finished. Hopefully sometime this year it will be though. You will still have my support and presence!

Looks like I'll be going to Carlisle instead!

That stinks but I hope they will be at SC...

No Broncorama

This blows!! already have vacation in for work and hotel room booked(no refund of course). We have been going for 8 years. Wish that they would have said something a little sooner.

Bums me out to. I really look forward to going every year. After watching the video it kind of sounds like it won't be a thing anymore. Anybody hear why there not doing it this year?

was also going to go don't know if I will make it to any events now. 66-77 no more now this, just hope to find another event for the 50 year I can drive to within reasonable distance of wisconsin

I would say when you are spending your hard earned money on parts, imho remember which vendors support the Bronco hobby.

 

[rydog1130]

I'll call over there and talk to Pat and get the scoop

 

[Monster Mike]

From what I heard, a few ruined it for all. There was reports of vandalism to Jeffs personal Broncos at the last broncorama. So that's it, no more.

Like I said, it's what I heard. But my source is pretty reliable.

If this was intended to say Jeff's no longer does, that is false. They do not get out to attend other events like many of the other vendors do, but Jeff has always been a very good sponsor to many events, including ours, When I spoke with him last week, he seemed very willing to help us out again.

He was also one of the first to put on events of his own. I'm sure there are good reasons why he is no longer doing it and a decision Jeff did not make lightly.

Come on up to the "Bronco Round-up Canada 2016" in Red Deer, Alberta, Canada on Aug 19, 20, 21. Would love to have some Bronco folks from USA at our event. Plus your dollar goes further here.

I was told with all the "other scheduled" events for the 50th, they weren't going to do it. I said isn't Broncorama a scheduled event every year? They also said there was a bit of stealing of items off of Jeff's rigs (knobs, hoses, cut seats, a key job) and he was kinda sick of it. They said they would be supporting other events with gift certs.

Just what I was told.....

Wow. Shocking that this happens with Bronco events. But I guess like all other hobbies, there are some bad people in it to make it harder on the good ones.

 

[rydog1130]

I talked to one of the guys i know well there at the grave yard and he said part of the reason for not having the bronco deal is that it was getting too big and causing a lot of problems for the area business. He said the road would get too congested and a lot of the other businesses on that road started to complain that their delivery trucks could not get through...so long story short it's a logistics nightmare and who knows there may be a bit of truth to the other stuff but I couldn't imagine why other bronco members would do something like that to another persons truck...

Believe it .... when Tim ( roadster u13.com ) brought his white survivor roadster there on it's first outing someone stole the original owners manual with all the original owners notes etc in it from his glovebox . THAT would keep me from ever going back !

 

[hyghlndr]

Wow, hard to believe in the Bronco world, there should be a good old fashion hanging if caught or firing squad (well not really but certainly hope they would get violated in jail)! In the world of the hidden camera it would be worth the investment.

 

[Scott C.]

That really sucks!! I enjoyed going up there. Jeff is a great guy. I just figured it was liability issues from the size of turn out and using multiple properties.
