emerald coast poker run
 

Did anyone else get screwed on the helicopter video and still shots at the poker run. Did you pay 125.00 for nothing.

Saw the helicopter plenty of times :drink:

Same here! They were all over us most of the day. Stu was taking the pics himself at times. They were even flying around us when we rafted up between Ft.Walton and Navarre. I think it was called AJ's Island Oasis?? There were tons of boats rafted up and They kept buzzing by?? We did not have any problem with not seeing the helicopter.

I think it was hit and miss. I didnt pay, and glad I didnt, because I only saw him a couple times, never did get any shots of me. I talked to someone else in the same situation, payed and no pics. However some people got plenty of action. I'll keep tabs on if there is any recourse, as I know several of the guys in the emerald coast performance boat club.

They said they got 80 percent of the boats that paid. The rest just will lose the money they paid. They never told anyone if you did not see them then you lose your money. I think alot of people would not of paid if they knew they might not get nothing for their money. You would think they would refund your money. Its not like we were messing around not looking for the helicopter. Wasted alot of time worrying where to go next to find the helicopter.

With 279 registered boats and only one chopper its hard to get everyone. They tried to shoot again on Sunday but I dont think the weather permitted it

Yeah they started calling people from out of state that were on their way home. We drove 14 hours to come to the poker run. We spent alot of money. We were hoping to get some good pictures. LIke every poker run we go to. Usually they take the pictures and you go and pick out the ones you want and pay then. I and several other people at my hotel had no idea if they could not find you then you do not get your money back. Ussually you get what you pay for. Wont make that mistake again and i know several others that wont either. Thats a bunch of bull we paid them for a service and got nothing in return. Thats all i have to say.

Re: emerald coast poker run
 

the helo found us and even had us turn around to get some good running in....

Re: emerald coast poker run
 

I saw the helicopter plenty of times. But they were over other boats. I'm going to ask Stu to apply the $125 to Key West or something else.
