Looks like Nascar is in Town



      Ten minutes in Las Vegas and I have seen two old men in over alls.

      Hmm something is up. This is not normal, even in Las Vegas where not normal is the norm.
      I mean sure it might be normal to see bearded confederate flag waving hicks dressed head to toe in Nascar paraphernalia in Arkansas or Alabama but this is Las Vegas, home of The Wynn Hotel and so many big name celebrity owned restaurants. I’d think you would be more likely to run into Bobby Flay walking down the strip one night than Danica Patrick. (I actually saw one of Hugh Hefners’s girl friends in old Las Vegas in a casino a few years ago. She had a very ugly Chihuahua wearing a sweater inside an even uglier Louie Vuiiton purse)
      What are the chances that bigger hicks than me, all wearing worn out over alls in public would all converge on Las Vegas this very weekend?
     So random.
     I made the joke to my travel mate,
     “Looks like Nascar is in town”
     I was making a joke but nope, really it is Nascar weekend in Las Vegas, the same weekend as our half marathon and the people watching is epic.
     For the first time in my life, I may not be the biggest hick in the area. My friend also secretly admitted at this point that whilst he wasn’t wearing overalls, or chewing tobacco, he did like to bet on fantasy Nascar using FanDuel….I was surprised to say the very least. And no, I didn’t let him forget it. Nor will I.

   Vegas is amazing this time of year when Nascar or PBR (Pro Bull Riding) is in town. Every casino blares country music and it is glorious.
