I was lying on the couch a few months back, who knows what race it was, maybe even last year, and I was watching Speed TV, they where at the track and had their usual set-up, and the camera was faced out to the crowd, all the people had their banners and signs displayed, and I started to day-dream about cooking ribs on my smoker....mmmmmm RIBS....

I was thinking to myself ....self....would it not be just the best thing right now to have some bbq ribs?

And then like someone in the audience must have heard me, some fan flashed a sign that read RIBS RIBS RIBS :shock:

Was I day-dreaming or does anyone else remember that :?:

That is FUNNY...and scarey!! My mouth would have hit the floor!!http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u138/bigolepig/spareribs.jpg

Alright...MY funniest/most embaressing NASCAR story goes back to the Fall Atlanta race in 2003...and I apologize profusely if this person ever joins the group...

It was a beautiful day...first time at Atlanta Motor Speedway. My parents and I get to our seats...as always there is someone in our seats. We motion to them those are our seats, they oblige and get up and move to the seats directly behind us. (Dang seat hoppers!! :twisted: ) So I start to get out my scanner, headphones, camera, etc. A few minutes pass and the "hoppers" gather up there stuff and start leaving. I look down, I can't find my camera...I hit my mom and ask her if she has seen my camera, we both panic... In the mean time the seat hoppers are hoofing it up the stands. I yell to the woman..."Did you happen to pick up my camera?" She says "No" and beelines it up the stands. Her husband goes the other way...by now I am pissed. I chase after him and ask him if HE has my camera...he says "NO, I didn't take your camera"...So I went back to our seats, and by this point my mom has notified security. Being the impatient person I am...I can't wait, but I can see where the woman went up at the top of the grandstands...So NOT using my better judgement, I stomp up the grandstands muttering under my breath the whole way. I walk up to her and say again (not as nicely mind you) "DID YOU TAKE MY CAMERA!! She again says "NO, DO YOU WANT TO LOOK THROUGH MY BAG"...SO, I don't know what came over me, but I grabbed her bag and opened it...and THAT is when it hit me...The front pocket of my bag...oh crap...I put it in the front pocket of my scanner bag. I handed her the bag back and walked back down to our seats, and my mom and dad are looking at me like I fell off the stupid truck for chasing this woman who could have obviously kicked my ass 10 times over (but I guess I had the fire in my eyes :twisted: ) and my mom goes "did she have it?" And I go...ummmm "NO" and grab my bag and pulled out my camera. The look on my parents faces were priceless...not to mention that I have never felt like such an idiot (BOLD and FEARLESS at the moment) in my life.

:lol: :D :lol: :D :lol: Good idea - there's ALWAYS funny Nascar stories!! Melissa - that's priceless - I can imagine you just wanted a hole to open up to disappear into. At least they weren't still sitting by you!

Our first trip to Talladega we had a BUNCH of funny stories - but this one's my favorite. We were in Family Park D and were right between two gates so we got a lot of people walking right past the campsite. Later in the evening a group comes walking through - all very friendly - and one of the girls stops to tell us a joke. Now, she wasn't exactly sober...which is a shocker at Talladega, I know... Anyway - her joke consisted of whistling - it was about a bird, and the bird had to whistle this song, to be honest I can't even remember the joke, but about half way through she can't remember the rest, and she's run out of whistle...which was hilarious all by itself....her group has left her in the dust and are long gone....so she tells us she has to go and off she tromps into the darkness.

We are having a blast just people watching...about an hour goes by...and out of the darkness a figure comes stumbling into our campsite....before we can even really tell who (or what!) it is, we hear this whistle :lol: The drunk lady had come back to finish the joke!!! :lol: :lol:

It was probably one of those "you had to be there" type deals...but it was hilarious!!

[bigolepig]

Haaaaahahahaha...that is why I don't attempt to tell jokes...I can relate!

[Nascarcamping]

Mellissa, that was priceless, I was laughing out loud, and then I saw your cartoon picture :lol:

Thats why they must have invented one liner jokes :shock:

Atlanta
Last Spring

We were driving around in the unreserved area on sat. night and came upon this older guy duct taped to a chair at one of the poles.

He was calling out to folks as they drove by...so we stopped.He said,Its my b-day and this is the only time I drink and my daughter taped me to this chair so I could not drink any more.

He was trying to get someone to help him and drive him to the store for more beer. lol
It was so funny.
His daughter came along and took over.

THAT is funny!! I have threatened to do that to some of the guys I go camping with. 'bout the only way you can get some guys to behave when they have been drinking.
