NASCAR RACING

Well I didn't want to post anything about me going to the Nascar race until I had developed my film. This was the first race that I've gone to and frankly might be the last, I'll sit at my home with my tv and my food and water. It's loud as hell, they cram 20 people in one row. Don't let everyone be overweight like myself. Then there's problems. There weren't any crashes, which is what I like to see. Then the #17 car, Matt Kenseth I think his name is, won. I don't know this driver too well so I really didn't care. I like Dale Earnheart Sr, Jr, Jeff Gordon, and Jimmy Johnson. Yes, Sr has passed on, but when he raced it was EXCITING.
Anyways, I got a little sick from the heat. Even though it was overcast the way Fontana is, it's like a big bowl. All this crap just sitting there. So I drank about 5 bottles of water at $3.00 ea. Then I needed to eat, because I was getting a headache and my stomach started to hurt. So we went down and got Italian Sausages. REALLY GOOD!! Finally it was about 180 laps into the 250 when we started to get a nice little breeze. Everyone was standing up so it moved the air around easier and I started to feel better. The next race is on September 3,2006. Which out here, it's going to be HOT. Perhaps if I was to bring a jug of water and my own snacks so I don't have to walk up and down those stairs it would be better. The people that I work with told me to bring a spray bottle and the people who work the beer stands would fill it up with cold water when I ran out. I thought that was cool.
But I guess all-n-all it was ok. I got to do something that I have never done, oh and I'll need some ear plugs, oh was it LOUD!
