Look what I found in the Walgreen's parking lot.

After debating about going to Eckerd's to pick up some ear plugs, I decided to go to Walgreen's instead. The ear plugs are for the Monster Jam Monster Truck Rally I'm going to tomorrow.

I pulled into "my" parking spot and there was empty spaces on both sides. In the parking space to my left, as I was about to get out, I saw what looked like a crumpled up Ford flag lying on the ground. Immediately I looked around for any sign of ownership, with high hopes in retrieving this object .

So I get out and look at it; it's an intact checkered Ford flag with a 3 ft long pole. (no pole included, but could fit up to 3ft). I quick put it in my trunk.

I washed it when I got home, and check it out. I can bring it with me tomorrow.

Cool vader, we can discuss it.

Hey FL!!

You going to the one here in Jacksonville??

I'll be there too. I took my camera with me last year. You just not supposed to have any video cameras. My has video on it, so of course I took a few video shots. Make sure you have a poncho, It is real cloudy and 60% chance of rain.

The Baltimore show is indoor at the arena. Too small for them to really open up on the trucks but the boy likes it....

read my post from the other thread. I didn't get to ride on the Blue Thunder because we didn't make it to the pit party since I didn't get off work until about 5:15 pm. I definately will try next year. .

I am just glad it didn't rain.

Oh yeah, there quite a few people completely drunk in there. One girl sitting one row up from us got 2 at a time and started drinking from the second one before she even finished the first one. She done this at least 2 or 3 times. I don't how anybody could even afford to buy all that alcohol or anything else for that matter.

oh I know, there was plenty of it. I can't believe some kids didn't even have ear protection... I EVEN saw the smallest baby!! why in the world would its parents bring it to a monster truck rally... that's almost like abuse if they don't cover their baby's ears.

it's a miracle it didn't rain! Oh, and the monster truck rides weren't part of the Pit Party...they were separate. I waited an hour in line and got to sit right behind the driver. It was so much fun.
