[Ansteorra] Gulf Wars Profits was Re: New Trend flyer apology

[Sean Tuttle]

I am from Trimaris, but do know that the Coopers came down to the Gulf Wars 
Site and attempted to purchase it.  I also know that the Coopers told the 
owners that they were not charging enough.  The owners reply was get the 
hell out of here!  The profits that are made during GW's does seem like alot 
of money, however, he is recovering from Katrina, he does want and allow 
groups to improve their areas.  To me this is a great situation in that he 
is happy with us and we have a wonderful site, location to continue the 
dream.

Do not mess with this great experience, the price is great, the location is 
wonderful, and the experiences priceless!!!

In the contiuation of the Dream,
