Fly Over

So lets talk NASCAR.

(You will probably skip down to my next post)

One thing that always happens at NASCAR races are fly-overs. It's a big deal and it's really cool to see planes flying so fast right above the track.

I went to the Pocono 500 one year and I was really looking forward to the fly over. Really looking forward to it.

I saw a plane coming and I got excited. It got closer and closer and I got more depressed and depressed.

It was an unmarked DC-10. WOW

For all I know that could have been Flight 223 in route to St. Louis.

It wasn't loud, it wasn't cool, it was like watching a plane fly over my house.

One thing about NASCAR races is that they are LOUD. LOUD LOUD LOUD. Although not as loud as a Craig Sager outfit.

I could hear the cars racing two days later back at home. My ears were ringing. I mean I literally could hear the cars running in my mind for a long time. I wasn't even in seats right next to the track, which is definetly a place that NASCAR newbies want to stand. Standing that close to cars moving that fast is quite an experience and well worth the $10,000 you will spend on getting your hearing fixed afterwords.

I guess if a Craig Sager outfit is louder than that then a Craig Sager outfit would probably burn your eyes out as quickly as watching Battlestar Galatica (which I have never seen, but it sounds AWESOMELY bad) while someone sprays mase in your eyes.
