Mike Kellman, Gina Bontempo, Sarah Gantner, Laura Habighorst, and Emily Curro had quite the experience last week! Mike and the team had a dealer meeting in Minneapolis, but their flight home was canceled due to the snow. The team decided to rent a car and drive back to Milwaukee that night.  

The team left Minneapolis around 8:30 PM, and when they heard a loud bang, just thought their luggage had shifted. When they stopped to gas up, the team realized the roof panel had been stuck upright for hours! 

Everyone made it back to their cars at the Milwaukee airport eventually, and the team all got home around 2:30 in the morning.

Sarah Gantner wrote a poem about the experience! Read it below:

Twas the night of the dealer meetings and all were content.
We flew to Minnesota and were looking forward to the event.
As we greeted our guests who had arrived,
our flights were cancelled and our evening took a nosedive.
Mike searched for other flights, but none were appearing.
We had to leave quick as a big snow storm was nearing.
We rented a car to bring us all home.
The trip would take 5 hours, and Mike would not do it alone.
Soon into our trip we heard a loud clunk.
We thought it was our luggage that fell in the trunk.
We sang and we laughed and we did karaoke.
Mike would rap a few songs, and we thought he was hokey.
As we stopped for gas in Johnson Creek,
we noticed the car roof and started to freak.
A panel was hanging from the top of the truck.
300 miles into our trip, we did not have good luck.
At two in the morning, Mike had survived the feat,
with all of us yahoos in the back seat.
As we look to next year and another plane ride,
we hope it gets cancelled as we’d rather drive.
