Default Am I the only person at Oshkosh without wheels?

I was able to get my family to OSH again this year (usually its a "guy's
trip"). We had a great time and enjoyed all parts. But, as usual, I do
have some gripes. Number one of those a Did anyone else notice a marked
increase in the number of vehicles running around the flightline?

I know that logistical trucks (ice, food, gas, trams, etc) should be
expected. But I was constantly having to get out of the way of someone in a
minivan, scooter, gator or golf cart. My daughter was almost ran over by a
14 year old in a golf cart. What gives? To me, once the show starts (this
would exclude Sunday's setup day), the vendors shouldn't need more
transportation than the average joe.

I had figured that it was "just me", until I had some guy in a mini-van honk
at me as I was walking on Aeroshell Square. Needless to say, I slowed down


Anyone else see this as a problem getting worse?
