The Monster Trucks of the Carpocalypse! – The Aftermath Video and Photos

by Randy Thomas on July 4, 2009 · 0 comments

I know I had fun with this in my post before the event yesterday but I went and had a very interesting and unique time. I am pretty cool with this being a once in a lifetime thing but … who knows :) . I did have a lot of fun.

I also captured *everything* on my iPhone 3GS and am using thismoment.com … I love it. Much easier… much faster.

I pray you enjoy this video and the photos :) .

::: rolleyes and laughing out loud :::
1.) Can do … any extra credit if I get a group of women dressed this way or more than one picture of several different women?
2.) Wow… will keep an eye out.
3.) Not sure about that one. I don’t know how culturally sensitive it would be of me to walk up to a couple making out, tapping the dude on the shoulder and saying, "Are y’all cousins?"
4.) Easy
5.) Another easy one ONLY if you don’t tell my trainer and I am a man on a post-gay journey :) . But right about now I am wishing I had a post-gay t-shirt.
6.) Lord willing :-)

ok here is my Crash-a-Rama scavenger-hunt picture list (Disclaimer: I write this with moral authority as I come from a long line of white trash and have participated in similar events):
1. Woman wearing a bandana kerchief-style halter top with a pair of wood-grain Candies.
2. A middle-age woman wearing a muu-muu and eating pork rinds dipped in Miracle Whip.
3. Kissing cousins
4. Five mullets standing in a row in the Corn Dog line.
5. A "post-gay" man eating a corn dog, bear claw, chased with a Bud Light.
6. A picture of you having survived this ordeal.
If you successfully bring back a picture for each of these, I will buy you a $30 card to Starbucks. No joke.

ok I want to make this work
1. Yes, I’ll give you extra credit
2. ok skip the food requirement and just show me the muu muu
3. Good point. How about a couple just hanging all over each other in that "Billy Bob and Ellen Sue go to the State Fair" kind of way?
4. Good
5. Show me the money.
6. I have full confidence in you.

It sounds like fun! I attended a similar event in honor of a friend, who did well in his race. The gathering is likely to be quite festive and relaxed. My recommendation is to simply sit back and simply enjoy the enthusiastic people and machinery!

loved the clear video of the monster truck and the school bus derby rocked! It seemed quite loud but worth the experience. Love the new iphone 3GS, would love to join in with all the fun but I don’t get AT&T service here.

Liked the “awesome”, and “cool” comments, kids are great!
