If there is no dressing room supplied at the site, you can have your underarmor (or whatever you wear) on underneath and make a quick parking lot change. I have done that at more than one site in this part of the country. (Then I will turn around and the next site will have a dressing room with lockers, a cooler of water, a bathroom and a shower complete with towels, soap, and shampoo.) Heck, at the collegiate level, at least around here, you are expected to make your initial contact with the coaches in Docker-like pants and a nice shirt (and shoes of course.)

I strongly agree with Skatboi. Though I will drive to my SP in my shorts/pants. It is a little less formal.

Thanks...well welcome back I suppose.

Maybe I'll just use the 40 Myths document as my rulebook.

Yeah, use those. Much less problems.
