Bimbo’s in East Tennessee

I’ve heard some carping about the presence of Bimbo’s in East Tennessee during the LuckyGunner.com blog shoot. As a service to our readers, I thought I should set the record straight about Bimbo’s in East Tennessee.

Yes, it’s true, I saw Bimbo’s in Tennessee.

I have to confess, I entered Bimbo’s while I was there and it was a blindingly explosive and satisfying experience.  The variety was pretty good, something for just about anyone.

The breasts were hot, firm, and juicy, but a bit too big for a guy my size.  What can I say, it was late at night, I had consumed a frosty beverage and I had an uncontrollable urge that needed to be satisfied.

Bimbo's Fireworks, Gas Station, and Travel Center

I wanted some fireworks and there was no way I was going to travel to the South without getting some properly fried chicken. The Bimbo’s chicken dinner was just what I needed for a late night snack.

Now this issue can finally be put to rest.

LuckyGunner Blog Shoot Was a Blast

Memorial Day weekend was a blast, literally!

Luckygunner blog shoot 2011Mz. VRWC and I went to the Lucky Gunner.com Blogger shoot, near Knoxville, Tennessee and had an amazing adventure. The blog shoot was part of BulletFest 2011, a full-auto, car shootin’, appliance killing, Tannerite laced cacophony, held in support of the Wounded Warrior Project.

Lucky Gunner offered us free ammo, a chance to shoot a few machine guns, social time with other gun bloggers and a few surprises. If the event was half as good as it appeared, we figured it would be worth it to fly out from Arizona to Tennessee.

It would be a tremendous understatement to say that Lucky Gunner under-promised and over-delivered on this event. They were even thoughtful enough to provide us with “ammo waitresses”, who would get us ammo and water, so we never had to leave the firing line.

We started off with an informal meet-and-greet at a local pizza place on Friday night, where we heard rumors of tanks and other surprises. We also got to meet many of the people we would be shooting alongside. We had great conversations with Mike from Firearms Anonymous and his Army buddy, Fill Yer Hands, Reverend Kenn Blanchard, M.J. Mollenhour and Angela from LuckyGunner.

The next morning, we ran into the lovely and talented Jennifer, her custom holster making husband – Evyl Robot, and OldNFO while we waited for our briefing on the shoot to begin.

As we scarfed down the breakfast LuckyGunner supplied, we got to know a little bit about BrokenTrace and PreauxPhoto of Burgers and Boomsticks, and greet Kevin Baker of Smallest Minority. M.J. Mollenhour and Angela explained the rules, and finally disclosed the directions to the range.

As we pulled into the range, it suddenly became clear that we were falling down the rabbit hole and into the gunny version of Wonderland. We were overwhelmed at the amount of machine guns, military hardware, ammo, smoke, noise, and hospitality available.

The 9mm subcompact and 1911 in .45 ACP that I brought along seemed inadequate compared to what was available to shoot. As I vaguely recall, I shot a lot of machine guns, including a BAR, M16s in various calibers and configurations, HKs, grease guns, and…then it all turns into one smoky blur of bullet sprayers, exploding appliances, and carbeques. I lost track of how many full-auto guns I shot in the first day. By the end of the day, I had even shot a civil war cannon!

There were tanks, half tracks, artillery, an EODT attack dog demonstration, guests of honor, and Veterans, appreciation for what our service men and women have faced for our country, great conversation, ammo waitresses, chicks with guns, handgun training, Gunnie Awards, and too way much fun to describe in just one blog post. We didn’t even get to meet all of the bloggers.
