I saw the news story about the cars from Cars coming to select cities. Does anyone know how to find out where they will be? I see the list of cities, but can't find the location in my city (minneapolis). I have tried googling, etc...

Thanks
 
Wondering the same thing for Chicago :car: ....I tried googling & the State Farm website w/ no luck. Anyone???

Thanks in advance. :wave2: :car:
 
I can always count on my fellow DIS'. to bring this up as a topic. I was just looking for this info this morning. I found a website that I am going to call that had PR people #'s - maybe they will spill the beanz. Calling now. O.k. just got off the phone with someone from the state farm pr department. She said they will be posting the information as they get it. I explained to her that the tour already started and that one of the sities the cars will be located today is very near my house. So she is supposedly going to find out more info and call me back. Her name is Mia. I'll have to wait another couple of hours to call Buena Vista PR.
 

No Luck! Even phoned my State Farm Agent!

Anybody find out anything?

Thank You Thank You Thank You!

You have saved me the task of phoning every mall in the GTA!

Plus, I wouldn't have phoned there since the Mall is NOT IN TORONTO! :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

Lol. I was thinking the same thing only I'm from the Minneapolis area. It's not as if I can walk outside and yell, "Hello, Lightning McQueen?! Sally Carrera?! Where are you!"

Still no update for Minneapolis and the tour is reportedly suppose to be through here this Friday and Saturday. :confused:

Well I went to the one they hosted in Vaughan, Ontario!

Could not find out where they were to go next! Sorry Guys!

Talked with the DS CM and they only found out this past Friday that they were coming to this mall!

If you have a mall that has anything to do with Nascar, that's your best bet!

Took a few pics and when I get a chance, will post, but they aren't that exciting! Did manage to get some posters and a dinky car of the Police Car from the Movie! Toys R Us was also a sponsor of this event.

It was cute to see these vehicles!

Good Luck trying to find out where they will be next!

Burnsville Center (another Mall)
1178 Burnsville Center
Burnsville, MN
952.435.8181

In the mall parking lot between Sears and JCPenney. This has been confirmed with the mall's leasing and management office (952.435.8182).

I was told that Friday, April 28 is reserved for limited, private events for Target & General Mills (who are other sponsors of the event), whereas Saturday, April 29 from 11-3 it'll be open to the public.

Burnsville Center is 18 miles south of downtown Minneapolis at the I-35W and I-35E intersection at County Road 42 in Burnsville, MN.

:dancer:
 
I have googled for an hour now. LOL Any info would be appreciated.
