I have attended this event with my family for the last two years and enjoyed it very much. I would like to attend this event, but I guess I need some clarification. Are we NOT watching on the huge screen in the main bar? There is nothing on the Xfinity Live website promoting the 500, and they have the Flyer’s game on at 3 pm on the 22nd on the giant screen as far as I can tell. The PBR Bar and Grill is a much smaller bar, with smaller TVs. It would be packed if we had the crowds we had last year!
This’ll be a great ! It won’t be Daytona, but close enough. Always a good time with the local tracks!
Sounds lije a good way to watch the race. Guess I will grab a shower and get ready to head up.
