Boy does this bring back memories, even getting wet crossing streams ...

My grandfather had 1,500 acres near Penn State (middle of PA), we ate and slept hunting on that ground from 1945 (first hunt) until he passed on in 1955 (place was sold) !@#$%^
In 1980 I was President of the Colorado State Muzzle Loading Association, we are at the State Championships in Leadville CO. The shoot is underway and we call for a meeting that evening. At dark we are in a 20 foot tipi (packed with members inside and out). The subject changed from normal business to folks talking about other state's rules - the subject comes up and I mention Pennsylvania's Flintlock Only season.
Someone outside the tipi runs around the encampment saying "Conner wants a flintlock only season".
We breakup the meeting a short time later and here's a half dozen guys wanting to fight over a flintlock only season. Those in the tipi couldn't believe what they are seeing or hearing, it took a lot of explaining and then grabbing the guy that spread the word. !@#$%^
