I have been taking my 8 year old to shows, and it has been a good way for me to learn better manners....as I tell him, somebody loves that car, and is very proud of it. We have no right to say anything about it, whether or not it is done to our taste. I remember being 17, and having my car get ripped by someone at a show, who obviously didn't know it was mine. I looked 12, so maybe he thought it was my dad's or something, but it hurt a lot at the time. I try to keep that in mind when Roy and I are walking around a show.
One other possibility, maybe the guy was pointing out to his buddy just how bad the gaps on those cars were when they were new?
