Redneck Fun

My favorite redneck sport is the demolition derby. If you don't know what that is here is a quick over view: junky old cars that have no glass in them and limited amounts of gas line up on the field. The rows are back to back. After a quick count down, all the cars ( 12-16 of them) smash into each other for the sole purpose of stopping other cars from running. The final three advance to the next round. The final round is all the smashed up winners from the other rounds. Then, they smash into each other to see which is the last car running. Last one running is the winner. Pretty simple, huh? It's so simple it's dumb, but I LOVE IT!!! We go every year. Last year one of the cars had it's gas tank ripped off and so we were treated to an EXPLOSION! This year gas was spilled, but no explosion, just lots of flames and fire! How could you not love a sport where things burn???

Here's some classy picts from our day at the demo derby. The cars as they line up:
