Spring Fling Car and Truck Show

It is that time of year again! Custom cars from around the country flock to Panama City Beach for the annual Spring Fling Car and Truck show. We plan to attend and enter our vehicle as always. The show is geared towards a younger crowd but is always fun for car enthusiasts of all ages. If you are down in Destin this is an event you may want to check out. Last year there was a large turn out and even though a few of us had a little too much sun, it was well worth the 30 minute drive from Destin. The show runs Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Tickets are $10 a day or $15 for the weekend. If you have little ones you may want to go on Saturday over Sunday because Sunday features the Bikini Contest.
