Day #1 Nascar Weekend - Dodge on the Circle

Brickyard 400 is in Indy this weekend. Jay and and I making a long weekend of Nascar festivites. Here's a recap from day one (several photos included) - sorry for the goofy wording I thought it was fun.

Depart from house.
Head to Krogers.
Elliott Sadler going to be at Krogers?
He must be sponsored by Krogers
But should be fun times.
Show up at wrong Krogers.
Wished the paper was with us to find right one.
Cut losses move on to next stop.
Drive Downtown for Dodge Drivers on the Circle.
Luckily there's only one Circle.
And I know where it is.
Find parking Spot in Perfect Location.
(Hear George Constanza in our heads bragging about it).
Immediately pointed in the direction of an autograph ticket line.
Wait an Hour.
Find out it's the wrong line.
See lots of Nascar fans more die hard than I.

Observe most are in love with Kasey Kahne.
(Should have photographed a few for kicks).
Watch several drivers sign autographs for other people.
People who waited in the right line.
Drivers being Kasey Kahne (below) Ryan Newman, Dave Stremme (left) and Scott Riggs.
Take a handful of decent pics - none of Riggs or Newman though really people in the way or blurry.
Get in right line for tickets to get Casey Mears autograph.
Find out Casey's not coming as he's ill or something.
Other lines too long now.
Autographs aren't in the cards today.
Walk around circle.
Look at various show cars.
Get various free trinkets.
Have dinner.
Come home.
Pass on USAC race.
Sky is looking frightening.
Had nice time.
Despite all the waiting for nothing.
Tomorrow is another day.
Perhaps our luck will be better.
