Barkley, Bits and Pieces

1/12/2009

 
​So I received the “official” entry form tonight. I can’t post it but here are some highlights…
Entry fee: All of the following must be provided:

1) $1.60 - It used to be $1.55… the increase must be due to the economy
2) A license plate - I am already anticipating this so I have ordered new personalized plates so that I may give him my current one. The new ones say ULTRGRL. I am not kidding.
3) A pair of socks - Yeah, I don’t know
4) One pack of cigarettes that I must purchase myself and NOT indicate that they are for someone else.

That’s right - I have to buy a pack of smokes. Gary requested Camel filters. I’m getting Barclays.
The entry form is also moderately amusing. My favorite line is a toss-up between “if you are looking for a racing experience that has been compared to being punched in the face for 60 hours, this might be the ticket.”

and

“Requirements: No children, they are too small. No women, they are too soft. No Yankees, we don’t want them buried here. No soccer fans, soccer sucks. No Wimps, Worms, Slugs, or Weenies, because they don’t got what it takes.”
​
I guess I’m not considered a “woman” Oh wait, of course not.. I’m an ULTRGRL now.
