After the 2014 Pincher Creek Parade a Car Show was held in the park behind Town Hall. Both events were hosted by the Pincher Creek Chamber of Commerce. One of the highlights of the show was a DeLorean that matched the 'Back to the Future' theme of the parade. Another was a British Lotus, which was a big hit.

"We think we had 35 cars at the car show, and we were quite pleased with that," said Chamber of Commerce President Sharon Roberts.  Many of the cars that were entered were owned by local collectors, including Matt Ferguson (pictured above) who won first place in the Classic Automobile section of the parade with his 1939 Chevrolet Master-Deluxe businessman's coupe.

The Pincher Creek and District Historical Society (PCDHS) served hot dogs, smokies, and hamburgers from a concession that sported the original Bunny Bar sign. Proceeds from the concession went to PCDHS. Chris Davis of Pincher Creek Multimedia/Pincher Creek Voice was the DJ for the event.

Mrs. Pat Petrone, one of the original owners of the Bunny Bar, was happy to see the sign, and to hear Davis count down the top 10 favorites songs of the Bunny Bar jukebox. Roberts said that she heard a lot of people reminiscing about cars, the music, and about the restaurant. "That was a great tie in with the Bunny Bar. I think the whole day was very successful."
