View Full Version : Hamburger stand meet
Magish 02-23-2004, 05:24 PM As ANOTHER measure to increase views, traffic, and such here I have decided to start a Events thread, where we can get some gettogethers going. This, along with the Spotted thread and the Rally-x schedule, and anything else we need up (important threads) will be Stickied once I become the mod of this section (which alex says will be in the next week.
Hopefully I can corrdinate these events with the ClubWRX and NASIOC ones too. ANyways, if you want a meet, and are willing to host it or just want to judge the intrest in a drive post it up here and the intrest can be judged.
Cheers
-Jeff
Just a little FYI - I myself will be able to corrdinate a little bit, but I will not be able to attend many, if any untill at least September because of a VERY buisy next few months (europe storming the Autobahn and such for a month plus a lot of acutally important things :p) So, basically if you want some help with some online corrdinating I can do it but helping at the meets can't be my part untill this fall.
VRWRX 02-24-2004, 06:59 AM One vote for interested. I may not be able to help much in coordinating an event, but I would love to be a part of it!
wrx21 02-24-2004, 08:41 AM Count me in too
wrx21 02-26-2004, 11:09 AM Does Anyone ever go to the hamburger stand on 2nd and Union on Sunday nights. There is always an import car show there. I know the guy that puts it on and hes really cool.
Maybe we should plan on seting up a day for all of our subarus to take this show over and show the Honda guys, and the mustangs who think they are imports up.
Let me know if youre interested, or to set up a specific day.

I've been there because its right down the street from me (I live at Jewel and Kipling) but not recently with my own car. It is pretty fun though becasue once and a while there are some kick ass cars there. PM me if your going any time soon and I might be able to meet you there.

VRWRX 02-26-2004, 01:18 PM That's way out east past Kipling, right? It's kind of a trek for me (I'm in Aurora), but I'm down to meet other Subies out there. PM me and let me know if you're going and I will meet you out there...
wrx21 02-26-2004, 02:42 PM VRWRX - Yeah, its the Simms/Union exit off of 6th Ave, the first exit after Kipling. - do you know of any other good car shows out east? I know that Sonics have them too, but theres usually just muscle cars there.
Well it looks like we have 3 cars so far maybe we should set it up for March 7th. That ways we can try to get a couple of other cars in the mean time.
Let Me Know

regg01 02-26-2004, 03:51 PM I'd be up for it about 2 Sundays from now or 3 Sundays-I'll be back in Aurora from Ft. Collins for Spring Break. I have a friend with a Suby that'd probably go too. Let's do this, fellas!:banana:
Magish 02-26-2004, 06:18 PM May or may not be able to make it... ill check my schedule. It would be great to get everyone together for the first I-club meet!

I know a few who I could maybe contact and get there. I havnt been there in a while, so remind me the times when it starts and such. I know a lot of people go and Street race (so stupid :rolleyes: ) afterward.
Cheers
-Jeff
wrx21 02-27-2004, 08:30 AM I don't know Exactly when it starts but i've always shown up around 9:00 and its usually pretty crowded by then, maybe we should plan on meeting a little earlier so we can all get parking spots in the same area.
Sunday, March 7th??? <-- I just kind of threw this out there, if theres a better day for anyone let me know, also if this works for you too..
Magish 02-27-2004, 10:37 AM We could possibly do a Auto show - dinner - Hamburger stand meet. I know I want to go to the show and it would be cool to do that. Maybe meet at the Colleseum at 4? Then dinner? I dont know... we'll just have to see!
Cheers
-Jeff
regg01 02-27-2004, 11:25 AM March 7 I'll still be in school, so it won't work. March 14th would work perfect for me. Realized that's the only Sunday I can do it, since March 21st I have to come back to Ft. Collins for school.
DenverWRX 02-27-2004, 03:52 PM I'd be down to meet some fellow Subaru owners. I just quit one job today, so and I'll be down to only one job again, but I don't know when the schedual is for that one right now.
VRWRX 03-01-2004, 12:59 PM Any Sunday is good for me. Just let me know the exact date/time/meeting place and I can probably make it. I have a buddy who just bought an '04 Rex and he would probably be down to see some others fixed up. Let me know.
The auto show would be a good idea too. I'd be down for that...
wrx21 03-01-2004, 08:51 PM So here is a vote .. should we go to the auto show as a group .. or, should we just meet up at the hamburger stand or some other place?
Im down for either
Magish 03-01-2004, 09:00 PM Personally i'd do the auto show. I"m gonna be there anyways so that would work.
wrx21 03-02-2004, 07:47 AM Well I had planned on going to the show too, so I will go .. Imprezastifan88 since the auto show was your Idea do you want to coordinate this .. i guess just give us all a day, time, place, etc...
VRWRX 03-02-2004, 07:57 AM Count me in. Just tell me where and when...
wrx21 03-08-2004, 07:35 AM Well, I went down to the hamburger stand last night to see if it was still going on .. and it's huge now, they moved it into the parking lot right next to the HS. I'm just wondering if anyone is still down to meet up there one sunday? Let me know, Just pick a day and I will be there.
-John
VRWRX 03-08-2004, 08:44 AM So did anything go down this weekend? I never heard an official word so I didn't do anything. I'm going to try to go to the Hamburger Stand this Sunday (3/14). Hopefully others will be there...
wrx21 03-08-2004, 10:02 AM Then I will be there too.
regg01 03-08-2004, 12:47 PM If all goes well (and I remember) I can make it this upcoming Sunday (3-14), VRWRX and wrx21.
I live in Aurora, maybe we can meet up prior and then head over there in our respective cars?
VRWRX 03-08-2004, 02:15 PM regg01 - I'm in Aurora too. I'm at Parker and I-225. Where and when would you like to meet?
KDamericano 03-08-2004, 04:16 PM I'm down to hang out. Let me know when something's goin' down. We could also try to find a place in the middle, so nobody has to go WAY out of the way.
wrx21 03-09-2004, 12:29 PM Well Parker and 225 is kind of far from me I live in Arvada but if you guys decide to meet up before let me know where and I will try to make it down there.
VRWRX 03-09-2004, 12:59 PM So it looks like the most central place for all of us would be somewhere around downtown. Any suggestions on a place downtown?
Magish 03-09-2004, 02:38 PM Sorry i havnt posted here in a while (well 2 days :p)
I'd be down for a meeting on sunday. Downtown? It depends on what people want to eat and how much they want to pay for it. I'm up for basically anything.
Cheers
-Jeff
VRWRX 03-09-2004, 04:59 PM I was just thinking downtown because it is probably the most central for everyone...
wrx21 03-09-2004, 05:53 PM Downtown works for me .. where do you guys want to go? I'm thinking somewhere with lots of parking so its easy to track eachother down, maybe we should meet somewhere beforehand and drive to where everyone wants to go or just straight to the hamburger stand .. let me know, i'm down for anything.
KDamericano 03-09-2004, 07:51 PM Does everybody know where Washington Park is? It's not too far from downtown, but there's a few places right by there with nice big ol' parking lots. That might work out well. Where should we go? Movie? Food? Strip club?
wrx21 03-10-2004, 07:35 AM Well .. If everyone agrees on one place this should be easy, lets just start suggesting some places to go. My vote is just sticking to the origional plan and meeting somewhere then heading over to the car show.
VRWRX 03-10-2004, 07:57 AM Wash Park sounds good.
KDamericano - How about some directions from the highway to one of the big parking lots so everyone knows exactly where to meet.
I agree, we should just meet and then cruise over to the Hamburger Stand.
KDamericano 03-11-2004, 09:52 AM My thought is, there's a high school right across the street from wash park with a bigass parking lot. If you're coming off i-25, you get off on university. Go north for about a block or so, and take a left on Iowa (there's a police station right there, and a left turn lane). Then go straight for a block and take a right on York. You can also take a right on the next 2 streets (Gaylord and Vine) it really doesn't matter. You'll go north until you hit Louisiana (3 blocks) and take a left. About 5 blocks down, you'll see the school on the left (can't miss it) and wash park on the right. Just turn into the school parking lot. The address of the school is 1700 E. Louisiana Ave, Denver 80210 if you just want to punch that into mapquest.
Okay, so we dont' have to meet there either. I'm really down to meet anywhere, and if people want to meet at the hamburger stand that was first talked about, that's cool too. What do you guys think?
wrx21 03-11-2004, 01:41 PM Im down to meet at that school, but if we are just going to head over to the hamburger stand maybe we should just meet up there, its pretty easy to find. The easiest way to get there from anywhere is 6th. Ave East or West to the Simms/Union Exit, turn south and go 4 blocks to 2nd. Ave, the hamburger stand is right on that corner but you need to go behind it to the Sheridan Hotel Parking Lot. You cant miss it, you can see everyone from union theres usually around 60-70 cars there.
If you guys want to meet up at Washington thats cool too. Let me know. I guess all thats left to figure out is what time are we meeting up?
VRWRX 03-11-2004, 02:13 PM I think we should all meet up (at the school school) and then cruise over there together. That way we all get a spot next to eachother. That and we can have a bit of a meet and greet before we get there.
What time do cars start to show up at the Hamburger Stand? We should probably get there a bit before it gets super busy so we get a good spot. I've never been over there, so I don't know how it goes down...
wrx21 03-11-2004, 02:33 PM Well the parking lot over there is huge and ive never seen it full .. people usually start to show up around 7:00 - 7:30 and they start to leave usually around 9:00. I guess if we met at the school around 6:00 we could probally make it to the show by 7:00. Let me know what you guys think.
VRWRX 03-11-2004, 02:35 PM 6:00 at the school parking lot works for me.
wrx21 03-11-2004, 02:41 PM Allright then I will be there at 6:00
Is anyone elese going to meet us there?
VRWRX 03-11-2004, 02:49 PM Let's hope so...
regg01 03-11-2004, 09:06 PM I'll see what I can do as well-I do want to go. I am trying to get a hold of my friend in Aurora who has an RS, too.
KDamericano 03-11-2004, 10:16 PM Awww crap. Okay, ****up on my part. I completely forgot about a family dinner that night. St Patricks Day. Corned beef. You fellow irishmen understand. So I don't think I can make it. Maybe I can squeek out and stop by or something. Hmmmm.
Okay, also, it's looking like the weather on sunday won't be too great either. Which puts cruising wash park and checking out the chicks out of the picture. Which is what I think we REALLY should be doing anyways :D
VRWRX 03-12-2004, 08:39 AM It looks like it's going to be in the 50's all weekend, and there isn't any precipitation in the forcast, so hopefully I can keep my car clean. Let's see what the weather looks like closer to then, but I'm still planning on being there.
wrx21 03-12-2004, 10:27 AM Its suposed to snow on saturday night / sunday morning .. that sucks! I'm still down to meet though, but there won't be too many people at the hamburger stand if the weather is bad.
VRWRX 03-12-2004, 01:03 PM Alright, rain or shine, it looks like at least the 2 of us will be there...
KDamericano 03-13-2004, 06:12 AM Okay, looks like I'll for sure be able to meet up at the school, but probably won't have time to head to the hamburger stand. We still planning on 6 pm sunday?
wrx21 03-13-2004, 12:54 PM yeah .. So it looks like KCamericano, VRWRX and wrx21 will be there .. 6:00PM on Sunday.
Magish 03-14-2004, 05:13 PM Damnation...another fricking event i cant go to. Someone bring a Digi Cam so that we can have some pics for it.
Cheers
-Jeff
wrx21 03-14-2004, 08:03 PM Hey guys, sorry I didn't make it ... I went snowboarding and dislocated my shoulder. I really wanted to go but I cant drive a stick with my hurt arm .. Hopefully It feels better in the morning so I don't have to drive my moms Cavalier to work tomorrow.
VRWRX 03-15-2004, 07:55 AM So there was only two of us there last night. I brought my camera, but there was only us two so I didn't think to take any pics. Next time when we have more people I'll get some. We need to plan another one that more people can come to...
KDamericano 03-15-2004, 11:01 AM Good plan VR. I'm going to start a new thread on this. This one's gettin a little long. Everybody, follow me!
Magish 03-15-2004, 03:22 PM Damn that sucks...if i could have i would have been there! Anyways, I'm going to talk to alex about geting ourselves a mod and also possibly a sub-fourm for just meets and stuff like that.
Cheers
-Jeff
