Default Am I the only person at Oshkosh without wheels?

I will clarify. I think *THIS* year, the problem was more with vendors and
golf carts. The gators and the EAA golf carts all seemed to be relatively
sedate and courteous....and I would get out of their way. What got on my
nerves was the number of cars and minivans. Maybe I just hit it all at the
wrong time, but I entered the grounds from Camp Scholler behind the South
West Exhibit building. By the time I made it to the Cessna unveiling of
their LSA on Monday, I had already had to stop and move out of the way for
4 vehicles.

Again, maybe I'm just a magnet for them, but it definitely seemed worse
this year, IMHO.

I'll agree with that. Most vendors are much less tollerant and less willing
to give pedestrians the right of way than are the volunteers.
