You'd hate me then, because we had an outdoor birthday party and all the girls got a ride around the property in the bucket.. 3 at a time.. They loved it......

Fill bucket with assorted cold carbonated beverages and ice...

LOVE IT! We throw at least 5 parties with 30+ people a year. We've learned a lot about 'entertaining'...what folks eat, what they don't, how to mingle and assign tasks, etc...drink location was the big one at this last party that didn't take. Constantly asked "Where's the beer?". Had an outside fridge and just assumed.

Anyway, I've had my eye on this stainless steel rolling cooler thing from Costco, but I don't want to store the darn thing the other 360 days.

Don't know why I didn't think of it! That idea's great!

I wonder if it'd be over the top to mount a cap popper to the side of the loader?

As an aside, I do intend to put a 2x4 brace under the loader next time I do something like this to make double sure nothing can happen. Not a mega safety nut about everything I do, but there are some basics that need to be covered...

Just a thought as far as party equipment. Fill bucket with assorted cold carbonated beverages and ice and you have a four wheel drive cooler!!! Gives a new definition of beer cart.

Now that's a good idea!!!! A little "Red Neck",,, but a great idea!!! :p

The first thing I carried in my bucket was my 2 nephews. Put in a lawn chair cushion and off we went.:)

At a party at my in-law's last year, my little 7200 (no loader) was the official event machine. I moved pallets of drinks around with the cargo handler on the 3pt hitch, gave hay rides, let the older kids 'drive' it (how much trouble can you possibly get in in 1st gear, low range?) and generally had a blast. And yes, my kids have ridden in the loader once or twice. Heck, if I could find someone else to drive it I'd ride in it once or twice.;)

Yea, but you missed out on 10K. If you get your "stones" whacked by your child, Americas Funniest Home movies will give you a chance to win 10K.

Getting whacked in the stones mat be worth it:eek:

Whacked with the loader? A child driving the loader into my stones? Not getting the right mental image here, but whatever the scenario, probably need a little more than $10K for that to happen, my friend. That'll make you re-think the "how much can happen in low range 1st gear" comment.

Kieth,
I think Kendall is refering to the old "get whacked in the stones by the pinata whacker" gag. Always funny when watching it happen to someone else.:D Not funny when you are the whack-e.:eek: :mad:

Darn Kendall, you beat me to the post by a few seconds.
