It has been a very special year for the employees and
customers of Hot Metal Harley-Davidson. On June 25th, the dealership and owner, Toby O’Brien
celebrated Hot Metal Harley-Davidson’s 10 Year Anniversary throwing
a Hugh Birthday Bash Highlighted by the giveaway of a brand new Harley-Davidson
Street 750.
“We’ve worked really hard to change the culture of the
dealership to make it a family friendly and professional environment, and to accommodate
the needs of our customers. Giving away this motorcycle is just one of the ways
we give back”
Over 500 motorcyclists, many of who are regular customers of
the dealership, attended the party on June 25th. The day started with a live broadcast with
Wookie from Y108. Operations Manager,
Rocky Marks played the tunes while the guests ate a hearty lunch of BBQ and
free beer from Iron City Brewing. After
lunch, Billy the Kid and the Regulators took the stage and played well into the
afternoon.
The bike giveaway was comprised of people who stopped into
the dealership weekly to fill out an entry form and customers who purchased a
motorcycle received two instant entries. Once all of the contestants were signed in, the giveaway began.
Each contestant had to pick a small box from a table in the
middle of the showroom next to the Street 750. All of the boxes contained a Harley-Davidson keychain, but only one
contained the keys to the brand new motorcycle.
After several attempts were made at picking the coveted box
with the key, good customer Bob Harris picked the lucky box and won the brand
new motorcycle from Hot Metal Harley-Davidson.
The Birthday Bash was just one of many events that were held
so far this year at the dealership with many more on the schedule. The next large event is the police escorted
ride to see Toby Keith at First Niagara Pavilion on Saturday, August 15th. Tickets are available at Hot Metal
Harley-Davidson for only $30 and include a pre-tailgate party with food,
beverages, and music.
