Art Deck Yo! at SPoT

By Rob Meronek

I'm always amazed at the amount of people who come out to our crusty little hut for these art shows. Thanks for stopping by
The Parents' Lounge was looking extra classy tonight
Jewelry made with little skateboard pieces
Thanks for organizing the Show, Chad. Here's some of Chad's work
Bayshore, the cigar factory in Ybor, Mons Venus, and University of Tampa. I would love to see this as a regular board graphic
My girlfriend once walked out the door downtown and found a boot on her car. We had a nice laugh when this boot on a skateboard mentioned my adventures with Officer Doofy. Thanks for the shout out, Cheeta Chad
Mad Magazine and Thrasher were my regulars growing up, too
Make time for your skateboard. I need to take this advice. Maybe learn some nollie front foot flips
I spy the pool gangstaz
Cheeta Chad and Rob Hoovis, OG
That's not Dumpster Curtis
The FSEC (Former SPoT Employee Club) was tearing up the bowl with the rest of the slashers
The session on the Kiddie Course doesn't slow down just because there's a bunch of drunk grown ups three feet away
Kyle Stone reminds me that I need to get a G10
Buck Tooth Will, close enough to get you contact drunk
Did Element make a special Wizard Smoke shirt?
Yonnie Cruz might be the first Puerto Rican on Black Label and definitely the first one on that can't grow sideburns
Join the Peace Corps, travel to exotic, distant lands; meet exciting, unusual people and give them a PBR and cigarette. That's what Chris Deacon is doing after the show
There was a Gow family reunion. Papa Gow with three sons Grundle, Ian, and John
This is one of Schaefer's old friends from way back when he had a vert ramp. Sorry I was a little lit when we met and can't remember anymore details, such as your name
Later that night, Reservoir Bar was of course the chill spot. That's Mama, bartender at Res. She will serve up a hard spanking on you for your birthday
It's nice to see our long time friends still part of the scene in everything we do. That's George and Laura with Ryan Clements. We've known each other since cassette tapes. Good night everyone. See you at Res on Tuesday night for the Moat Show after-gathering

I've been posting random ramblings to this What's Up blog on the SPoT site since 1999. Here's a random list of some of my favorite posts over the years...Rob.

OG (May 2006)
Posted by Rob on Fri, May 12, 2006
We used to pretty much use stickers and tape to make our old flyers as you can see on this one from 1996 that someone sent to Schaefer. This one doesn't top Alana's OG SPoT membership card.

When you're filming for your video that you're going to send to random strangers to evaluate you, wait until the camera is turned off and not pointed at you before you roll up your jeans like a hillbilly. Thanks.

We found plenty of spots, new friends, and had many good times in a quick weekend trip to Atlanta. Check out some photos from our trip.
We saved several photos for use in places other than the website so be on the lookout for those also. We also hit up this place called Blood 'n Fire, a homeless shelter in Atlanta with a bowl and several other ramps. Photos from that are coming up tomorrow.
