Awesome gesture fellas. Cool to hear.

trackrat59 02-24-2012 07:15 PM

This is very cool.

Way to go guys.

GenuineRisk 02-24-2012 07:31 PM

Wow. Way to make me cry on a Friday night. That is really awesome.

TheSpyder 02-24-2012 08:26 PM

Another Spyder Production
 
I sat in my chair looking at my golf clubs and bags Thursday morining only to realize that I would not be making the trip, as I too was getting the food poison-bug that my wife had caught the day before.

Still I taped the winner circle and put it on Youtube.

Enjoy,

Spyder

Good for all of you and thanks for posting the vid, Spydee (feel better).

Really, what a lovely idea.

Trust me, it made me cry as well, Nicole.

What an amazing gesture by a great group of friends. I was speechless and very touched. Thank you so very much to everyone involved. You all mean the world to me.

Thanks for posting Spyder, I also had to cancel last week because my wife had to travel last minute for work. I was very disapointed too but this lets me share in the moment. I'll make the second annual trip though. Are we keeping it in Tampa or are we moving it city to city? ;)

Bogey 02-25-2012 08:36 AM

Nice! Now we have a GPK/Grunder growth chart to go along with the one Sheets has. Unfortunately for GPK, the only way he's going to make up some ground is if Grunder starts to shrink.

GenuineRisk 02-25-2012 10:41 AM

Thanks for posting, Spyder. Really enjoyed that.

Fulla Sheets looks like he's been pounding cheeseburgers instead of the golfball

What is with Exacta Bob bringing the A+ threads? You tell him it was an important day?

Garner Vinson looks fun

I'm more worried about him ever finding a girlfriend. I mean how many kids show up at the track with a laminated and ring bound racing form with 4 hours of notes on each page.

Girls are icky to him right now. He shuffles away from them.

The ones who eventually say eff it and start stooping. Then after a few months of stooping they develop nervous ticks like making bird noises or cleaning the betting machines with purell hand wipes.

Congrats, Kev, this is awesome. Really wish I could have made this trip down with you guys, I too am hoping there will be a second one this year as I would definitely try to make it! Cash some tickets, guys!

That had to be the tightest finish of the weekend.

I am amazed by the restraint Golfer showed after Guidry's pathetic ride. I was sure he was going to break his jaw when he got back to the winners circle.

Herk - at least thru Friday. The Deano Butler fist pump finish on Saturday was probably tighter. And the WHOLE box helped get him to the wire. :$:
