No Smokin in the Rain if you are close to an Academy

[Jorge]

Saw an ad for a 12'x12' canopy for $9.99 at Academy (Texas and some SE states). I have a couple that I keep handy for use with the smokers. Big enough to keep rain off the beast and me while farking with the fire and the meat. Small enough to store with no hassle. They aren't bulletproof, but at that price it's hard to go wrong. Good to add a couple of days to the Q season when you would just say fark it and wait for the next weekend.

Man, I coulda used one of those today! I had my table snuggled up close and its umbrella over the firebox. Rained like a bastage...

One of the best deals I've ever found. Comes in handy on an August day in Tx. and Ok. in August too, when it never rains. Plenty of shade for the cooler and dogs out back where I get to smell the smoke and have peace and quiet. That's worth $10

That's weird Jorge. I haven't been online the last few days but I went out and bought one of those yesterday. Can't beat $9.99, I got ours for our 4th of July bash to put over our serving tables so people don't sweat into my Q.

Also picked up a $9.99 3 x 5 American Flag.

Brothers think alike.

Anyone find an ad online that can post a pic of what your talking about?

I only find them $80 car port dealies.

Bill, I couldn't find it online, but it is the Dining Canopy made by Timber Creek? I think. It listed over the weekend for $9.99. Here is Academy's telephone: 1-888-9-ACADEMY , maybe you can order.

Thanks Stu
Just saw one on ebay. They are marketed by International Concepts, a marketing wing for Asia Pacific Rim companies.

Found some similar stuff at Texsport.
