To celebrate the end of my schooling/internships, Jeff (with his crazy luck) was able to get free tickets to this year's AMA supercross at Rice Eccles Stadium at the U. Jeff got the tickets (which were worth $50 each) from X-96 the Radio station. I was really excited because growing up I always wanted to go and knew everything about the riders, but never had anyone to go with. Despite the freezing (literally 30degrees) temperatures, it was worth every freezing minute.
A close up of the finish line
James "Bubba" Stewart (one of the only black riders) and one of the more popular riders, although he ended up taking lots of crashes.
Last year's champ, Chad Dungey
At the start of the race the announcers interviewed the top racers since this race was the last one before the Championship in Vegas. #22 is my favorite rider, Chad Reed. You can also see the winner of the night in the green, Ryan V.
