You knew there had to be one...

Day before race say: The whole back of this truck opens up into a grill making it the World's and maybe the universes largest grill. It takes a whole pallet of charcoal to get this baby fired up. It's located, this week-end, at Marion Square for the Cooper River Bridge Run. Depending on the weather, we may have 30,000 runners this year. This truck almost makes me want one of the pig ear, cow utter, pig snout things--they call them Brats in Chicago.

Race Day: Got to work at 9:30 AM, made a few rides and got out before the rain. Over 40k ran the race, not including scabs. The last vehicle on the road, before it was reopened, was a street sweeper; cool idea. Lots of people run the race, get drunk and are back to their hotel by 1:00 pm for a nap. Business should be good again tomorrow, lots of tired legs not to mention about 40 thousand hang-overs.
