You would all be talking about MY DAD!

We spent many years (yes we are hawks supporters) travelling to the Hawks home games both at Waverley and then a the G, taking Hawka and junior members around the ground. Dad repainted his hovercraft in Hawthorn colours. It was a total joy and something we were both thrilled to be part of for as long as we were. Including more than one "Hawka" ;-)

Sadly, they changed direction and decided the hovercraft was no longer going to be used. BOOOOOO!!!

I do have some photos somewhere, which I will hunt out.

Dad has seen some of these posts and they bought a smile to his fae (except the one with the Carlton mascot and their attempt to use a hovercraft - geeze guys, get your own ideas!) LOL
Love it mate!!!!

Does he still own the hovercraft or did he get rid of it?

Yeah, I didn't think it was
A friend of my mate used to be Hawka
His name is Phil C.
Do you remember him?
O.K Steven Tyler, we all know you're a rock star n all, but name dropping Phil Collins is just going too far mate!;)

Look forward to some pics. Maybe post one on the Carlton board and quote." Trying to follow the best, but can't keep up."

I remember taking a pic of my nephew in front of the hovercraft at one of the Hawks Family Days. Took a quick look at the controls to see if they left the keys in it for a bit of a joyride. But alas... :p
