No, no Joe.....his wife and 2 young kids, along with his sister-in-law left. My boss and his BIL stayed behind. And then, my friend and his buddy finally showed up just before rnd 2.

We got to the pits just before the "heavy rain" came down and we took cover in JR Todd's pit area.
Aw, crap! You should have hollered! Yeah, when they were going to start pro mods at 10, we had kinda 'set up' to watch that......and THEN the downpour! I had just left the Brut pit not 10 minutes before that. What timing! Story of my life!

Sorry to miss you!

Re: Drunks In The Stands

We had two of "those moments" this weekend, Saturday when the bikes were ready to pull out from under the tower and again Sunday when Pro Mod was about to fire the first pair. Both times, the track was ready and then the skies opened up before the first pair fired. That sucketh!!!

Re: Drunks In The Stands

I enjoyed the drunk guy that proclaimed a certain FC driver was an A-hole and heckled the team van as it drove up the return road at Pomona in front of the loosers lounge. Sad truth is he was yelling out Scelzi's name as Gilbertson and crew rolled by. No more than 2 minutes later he was hi-fived by 3 other drunken assumed NASCAR fans that found the wrong turn off on the 10 freeway. They were congratulating this guy on his first drag racing experience. Has anybody seen that Viagra car go by yet?

Re: Drunks In The Stands

i think joe sherwood was trying to photograph these illusive
'drunks in stands' - he was very close with picture #60 from houston;
unfortunately these two alcohol toting fans were just steps away
from actually being 'in the stands'.
nice try though joe - keep em' coming!
