UPS finally arrived and here's some photos. Most likely this one is staying indoors and unassembled. Maybe I can mount the lid in the garage somewhere. Big thanks to Brian for those handles and to Marty and everyone else for looking out for me. For those that think that its only a black, logo'd 18 OTS it definitely means more to me. I'm a Tennessee Squire and a Weber fanatic so this marries both of my loves. A Tennessee Squire is a member of the Tennessee Squire Association, which was formed in 1956 to honor special friends of the Jack Daniel's distillery. Many prominent business and entertainment professionals are included among the membership, which is obtained only through recommendation of a current member. Squires receive a wallet card and deed certificate proclaiming them as "owner" of an unrecorded plot of land at the distillery and an honorary citizen of Moore County, Tennessee. For those that want to learn more about the Squire association, feel free to read up on it here:

Not to my knowledge...but if they did I'd be all over that like flies on shit! :)
-
That's a really nice grill! Nice logo and the handles really help set it off.
-
Congrats Terry...a grail has been scored.
-
Very very nice terry. I know u wanted one of those bad so I'm glad u snagged one. Those handles look vaguely familiar and bad ass.

... Squires receive a wallet card and deed certificate proclaiming them as "owner" of an unrecorded plot of land at the distillery and an honorary citizen of Moore County, Tennessee.
The Laphroig distillery does something similar to this (I'm a plot-owner in Scotland). Perhaps they copied the idea from Jack Daniels.
Cheers to brown whiskey, everywhere!
-
Awesome Terry! I'm glad you finally got one! :D
-
That is a beauty! Handles look outstanding, too! :D
Only one post from the person who sent you this ... but, they came through in spades! Very nice, indeed. :D :) :D
-
Congrats! You deserve this one for sure.
-
Congrats! Looker or Cooker? My guess looker. :)
-
That is a nice looking grill Terry. Glad you got what you were after.

Amazing score Terry. Can't believe you won't assemble this and pose with it somehow before putting it back in the box. Definitely find a way to at least display the lid. Let me guess, the vent code is JD, right?
For those that don't know the full story, Terry called me when I gave him the heads up via PM that someone had posted a reply to his original wish-fishing post and said they had one NIB. We both thought hoax, but he was breathless with excitement just the same. We would all be if one of our grails was that close.
This is one of the happiest stories on WKC for a while, but then again, it is the Summer of WKC.

MartyG, landgraftj, great story. Have you come down yet, landgraftj?

No cooking on this one! Now if I happen to run across another it'll be game on!

He kicked his wife out of the bed and slept with the grill last night he was so excited. :)

You da man Gerd!

That is fou r hours from me, some of the phoenix guys may be closer. Let me see what I can do. Do you have JD Go Anywhere?
-
Don't worry about driving for hours to get it...too much effort for you. If you have a buddy or someone near it grab it. If not, we wait for the next one. I do not have a JD go anywhere.
-
I am contacting the guy to see what we can do.
-
Man, that portable one is nice too...
-
My brother lives in Prescott. He and I may be able to be of assistance.

Absolutely not. In fact it's so right. ;)

Oh john, that is even better. I have been emailing the seller, and he still has it. Can you find out if you brother can grab it for us?
-
Great story and great grill, I'll have my Q like I have my Jack, Slow and Neat. ;)
-
Outstanding story! Hopefully the next chapter is unfolding before our very eyes. :D
-
Hope you get it!
-
G$, I sent you a pm.
-
John and Gerd - if you guys can swing this I'll be a happier (is that a word?) man. Can never have too much Jack stuff!
-
No guarantees, but we are working it. I am waiting for the guy to contact me back, and thanks to jc we may have a local agent. If it CAN work, it will.
-
Like I said earlier...if we get it we get it...otherwise on to the next one.
-
All the players are in position, waiting on the seller!
