I went to the Pepsi 400 over the weekend with two of my friends (none of us are Nascar fans so we made a very unlikely trio at the race), because one of my friends had free tickets. I'd never been to a race before, but I grew up close to Bristol so I've known about it my whole life. Though I could never understand how people could suffer through hours of watching cars go around in a circle. However, after experiencing the race, I realize that in person the races are a billion times more exciting than watching one on TV. Though I'm still not a fan, I just had a really great time at the race. The ability to bring in coolers full of alcohol makes me love the people in charge of races. There's nothing worse than going to a concert and having to play 5 dollars for a 12oz bud. I was able to bring in a cooler full of Sparks for less than the price of two concert beers, and it was awesome!!! For some reason alcohol and watching fast cars goes together perfectly. Also ironically the Jack Daniels car battled with the coors light car for leadership nearly the entire race after some early crashes. Another good thing is that everybody had on t-shirts with there favorite driver's name, number, car colors/main sponsor, and often times the driver's face.
Plus I also saw some rednecks nearly come to blows over there drivers. It was hilarious.
All in all my weekend was made out of awesome!!!
