Re: NASCAR @ Dover
Looks like you had a great time Glenn. Thanks for sharing and thanks for the photos. I certainly understand your excitement.
A customer of mine (ESPN producer) recently sent Annie and I to Joliet, IL (our choice) on his nickle to watch #31 Justin Allgaier/Brandt (another customer of ours) race. We were given cart blanc passes to anywhere on the track and pits and sat in the Allgaier/Brandt pit tower with Rick Brandt and the owner of Turner Motorsports for 170 of the 200 laps. Between the Brandt hospitality tent and luxury bus ride to the ESPN command center and their hospitality we had the best time ever. Annie even got a hug from Jeff Gordon but just missed Dale Jr. Best part was when Kyle Bush (she does not think too highly of him) lightly brushed her butt with the fender of his car as he returned to the garage after qualifying. The highlight of the day was being asked to stand with the team and car on pit road during the singing of the National Anthem and then coming home to watch the recorded race and Annie and I on TV. Awesome day. I added some shots, hope you don't mind.
