Just saw this...
The end of an era. Ever since I started waterskiing (some 30 years ago) and especially since I joined my first showteam I have known about the Tommy Bartlett Show.

And now they have to close up shop due to the Covid pandemic... So sad.Cry

https://www.channel3000.com/tommy-bartlett-show-to-permanently-close-after-69-years/?fbclid=IwAR26EVnaGaL6KV4NtnpUVsneJp6piLYmXxS4ZqDx3dMZ00mu5dpjrGYguiM" rel="nofollow - https://www.channel3000.com/tommy-bartlett-show-to-permanently-close-after-69-years/?fbclid=IwAR26EVnaGaL6KV4NtnpUVsneJp6piLYmXxS4ZqDx3dMZ00mu5dpjrGYguiM

But I am afraid more events we have known all our lives will follow... It doesn't look bright for the economy (US or Europe) if politicians and scientists aren't gonna start to use some common sense... Disapprove

- Money doesn't make one happy, but when it rains cats and dogs, it's still better to cry in a Porsche than on a bicycle...

Neither scientist or politician should be trusted
Both work for the government
Think for yourself, live free and do not let anyone tell you what to do or who you are

Side bar to this thread but a related subject matter (ski shows).
If any of you or your family members are around Warsaw Indiana the show that the Lake City Skiers put on is well worth seeing.  The show is actually free..........but they accept donations.  Link below for more into.  FYI - my family has went three times to the show (different years) and have never been disappointed.  We live about an hour away and have no connection to the show or anyone performing but have really enjoyed it every time we have been.  
They do use one Nautique in their show.

Great show! Been there multiple times. We’re about an hour away as well. We were there few years ago at the Pro Wakeboard Tour.

We used to live in Lowell IN 1.2 miles to Cedar Lake. We have been to Warsaw chain of lakes and Maxinkuckee . The chain was too busy and Max was too rough with no where to park. Now live on lake Lanier GA. Plenty of room and a 8 month plus season.
