More like the Georgia Mountain Superspreader Fest, right fellas?

This eggfest is a big boon to our small community and we're trying our best to help. Stay home if you choose to, but, don't try to be a spoiler.

With sincerity, and respect for your intentions, I don’t understand this reasoning. 

Some people are living life normal as possible. Not living in fear. Some people are living in fear. Living their lives far from normal....

Can’t upload images, so words will have to suffice. 

Of 515K+ dead, many “lived in fear”. Many didn’t. They died anyways. 

I hope everyone has a great, safe, time.

And too many of them died alone.

I've never seen one of these posts in time to cook!! I grabbed 2 cooks tickets this year!! It's on my birthday and everything!! (may 15) I've only been to forum events. Never an eggfest,.

I'll be getting my 2nd vaccination on March 25, so I should be good enough to wear a mask in a crowd.

And all "died in fear"

PigBeanUs

A number of those who “died in fear” did so because others didn’t fear it enough.

@northGAcock and @SSN686 Just listen and i'm sure you will hear my loud self talking over everyone!!

Buckshot74

For those that have been before.... About how many eggheads do the cooking?

Thatgrimguy

Ok, got a camp site from the 12th through the 16th. I got 2 cooks tickets. Bought a mini-max that I'm not telling the wife about till I pick it up.  And I've got my RV scheduled to get fixed up in time!! I'm thinking I'll tow my big cooker so I can do all my prep at the campground.

hoosier_egger

I'd love to make it down there. Maybe next year! I've heard that it is a beautiful setting.

SSN686

Morning @Buckshot74

I've been to most of them & there has usually been between 90 & 120 cooks...I haven't talked with John about this year but my guess would be closer to the 90 than 120 for this year.

What are the precautions? I'd love to come. 

The only precaution is to use a little common sense......it's an outdoor event.

I'd assume masks will still be required?

Optional, not required........

Then the same guidance also applies for the cooks washing hands after taking a crap?  Or is that somehow different?

RealDonaldTrump

This is borderline negligence by BGE and their distributors!

That eggfest sounds awesome. The largest around here is around 40 cooks.

You should try to make it to Indy's Eggfest at Sullivan's hardware.. Usually 90+ cooks.

When you buy your tickets and register, do they ask where you’re coming from?  It sound like they might since I’ve read that people come from all over.  That could be a very nice contact tracing database if common sense doesn’t prevail.

There's also a Covidyourasset clause

Usually the last Saturday in August. They haven't announced the date this year (that I've seen), I think they are waiting on COVID

MasterC

ColtsFan  your likely right. Tried looking it up but only found past events 

JohnInCarolina

I wonder if egret is having some regrets.

alaskanassasin

What does @egret regret? 

lousubcap

An audible (masking) would be a great call right now- Mea Culpa could go a long way as the reverse audible is not off the table since "to mask or not to mask" is a quick option. 
Taking bets??

That is funny, but even school districts and others in Texas are now coming out with their own guidance saying nope, masks required.  When your government leadership isn’t being smart, you have to be smarter.

Thatgrimguy

I love that everyone is taking shots at Texas like they are alone. Mississippi dropped masks and opened full capacity as well.  Allen Hyundai is still requiring masks of employees. and still keeping social distance practices though.

We have an event to cook at soon and I hope it isn’t a mess.   My wife and I have been talking about backing out as she is around covid + people way to often (daily at work) and I’ve been exposed a few times.  

Starting to think I may be best practice not to attend as I’d hate to risk exposing someone.   It’s a hard choice and I do not even any business owner trying to work this all out.
