NASCAR

We were really debating on whether or not to go to the races this year, because of our budget constraints.



We had still not bought any tickets a week before the race, when at one of Landon’s Gigs, one of his friends that lives in Kansas won a couple of tickets to the Nationwide race. She gave them to Landon, saying that she was not interested in racing and would especially not be driving down to Texas to watch it! So we were very lucky to have such friends, and went to the Nationwide race. Which our boy won!
It was a great time. Landon and I always have such a good time at the races. The fans are some of the best that we have ever encountered in all of our tailgating at sporting events.

So while we were parking and getting ready to go in, Landon gets a phone call from a guy that he has worked with here in Texas saying that he has a car pass to get into the infield (the center of the circle where all the cars go around) and if we want it that it is ours, because he is not interested in going. So we took him up on this as well.

We got to experience the infield of a NASCAR race. It was a great experience. The NASCAR race is about 4 hours, and a little long for me, but I still had a good time, and Landon had an excellent time. We met a few more fans that we made friends with while we were standing on the top of the RV watching the cars go around.

Great fun! I feel we are so lucky to have such friends and co-workers that we got to go to two races for free. This was great since we probably would not have gone. Thank you friends!
