Default What are the odds of this happening?
Three of us couples drove to the little town of Bonaparte, IA today for lunch. Our group consisted of 2 red vettes and 1 gray


When we came out after lunch, we saw three vettes coming through town...2 red and 1 gray


They saw our three, all the same color, so they pulled up along side our for a photo opportunity. We visited for awhile. It was a great day, and good "Corvette" fellowship.

Probably about the same odds as me getting stuck in traffic next to this Mustang.

Never heard of Bonaparte, but it's probably the only time there have been 6 Corvettes in the town at the same time. Looks like a nice little place.

You're probably right. The population is just over 400 people.
