An interesting thread. I do not care for expo/shows in the least. Or bowl games or car races. Too many people and too much noise. WAY too artificial. Some folks go for the fakey scene and that's fine. I will say that I've been on this forum long enough to find it no surprise which HT individuals sing praises for glitzy showboat environments.
The only courthouse cannon episode that I know of was Kalispell late 60s early 70s. Those clowns blew a couple rolls of toilet paper to bits as well as some windows in the building next door (Presbyterian church?). The culprits, as I recall, were too drunk to get away. A couple of prominent kids were involved but can't remember exactly who. I'll call my brother. He'll know. I seem to recall Charlie Claire might have been one. And Moose Miller's kid? Claire eventually committed suicide by Shelby Cobra on 93 just below where the county landfill is now. The courthouse cannon was relocated to Woodland Park with muzzle welded shut. I attended MSU one quarter in 1975. I don't remember a courthouse cannon in Bozeman.
