I have nothing against Oscar. I know what he stands for and it`s terrific. And I think when people used to hang around and pat each other on the back over a drink and dinner it was wonderful. But when it became an international hoopla, where careers lived and died on whether or not you did or didn`t get an Oscar, then it got out of hand.
- George C. Scott(on the hoopla over homosexual slurs in "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back") "Gay or straight has never been a big issue with me. Sex is sex, as far as I`m concerned. Some cats dig on the opposite gender, and some cats dig on their own. Sexual identity will always be as mystifying as why `The Dukes of Hazzard` was once the number one television show in our country: there`s no point in getting bent out of shape about it; it just IS. Some cats will always gravitate toward Daisy Duke, and some will always pine over Boss Hogg."
- Kevin SmithThis fun-filled family event will have a variety of food and drinks from the 18 vendors at Sunset Village along with a Kids` Corner, comprising of a number of games including the bouncing castle, Ice-Cream, Hoopla, Bingo and a Three on Three Basketball Tournament with Local Government playing the Members of Parliament, in a special challenge match that will highlight the competition.
- David WallaceI don`t think it would be good for the sport. Those people up there in the stands know who is and who is not racing, and with Earnhardt Jr. and Gordon, two of the biggest draws not in it, some of the hoopla won`t be the same.
- Jimmy SpencerYou go down there and it`s a two-day deal, and you`re in and out of there, as to where with the big track you have a car count of nearly 60 cars and you have a lot more hoopla. So, going to Memphis without all of the Cup teams there is almost like a vacation.
