[Milsurplus] Dayton Hamvention Hara Arena

[ka8vit at ka8vit.com]

The HARA Arena was a crap hole when I first started going there 35+ years ago and should have been torn down back then.

Anyone besides me remember the Great Poop Explosion in the parking lot flea market area in 2011?

It rained sh#t down on folks and really got a few of the flea market vendors who were set up near it.
