If you don’t like cars, baseball and SpongeBob Square Pants then you hate America. This weekend’s Cavalcade of Customs will have everything for the red-blooded American in all of us (and don’t try to act like SpongeBob is gay — that was one of the Teletubbies).
In addition to showcasing dozens of hot rods and custom cars, the event will include an autograph session with Reds legend/banned MLBer Pete Rose, kid-friendly mascots like SpongeBob, Mr. Red and Dora the Explorer, and lots of other stuff for those who don’t know the difference between a camshaft bolt and a camshaft button (the bolt is smaller). The main draw, of course, will be the many “sweet,” “badass” and “awesome” cars, along with special exhibits, noted designers, collectible toys and charity auctions. $14; $5 children ages 6-12. 3-10 p.m. Friday, 10 a.m.-10 p.m. Saturday and 11 a.m.-7 p.m. Sunday at the Duke Energy Convention Center.
