In exchange for being a judge for the final round of Boots and Bikinis tonight at Whisky River, I was given one of the last pair of coveted tickets to the damn-near sold-out Bret Michaels concert there tomorrow night.
But I am leaving to go back to where I came from tomorrow (as in small town, Virginia) to give thanks and eat myself into a turkey coma. So, I am giving mine away to you, my readers. Because I am grateful for you, and I am giving thanks in addition to tickets! And I like you. But in order to win you have to at least 'like' me back ... it's only fair. Drop me a line via that page (the line being your full name) and I'll draw a winner at 5 p.m. today and announce it on my page.
Today is the last chance to get tickets, so get on it ... here.
It will be sold out by tonight, but they're giving away one final pair of tickets at the bikini contest ... and if you're lucky a girl in a bikini will give them to you.
You might be able to tell from me looking like I'm deliberating some sort of math equation in the background, I take my role as judge very seriously. I judge on personality and brains. For starters, the contest says "Boots and Bikinis" ... so why do most of the contestants wear stripper shoes?
Former NASCAR driver and current USAC star Shane Hmiel was involved in a nearly fatal accident in October while running his Silver Crown car at Terre Haute Action Track where he broke his back and neck in two places. And with that his hopes of running in the Indy 500 turned to hopes of ever walking again... and now, he is racing to recover.
As he lies in a hospital bed in the ICU undergoing multiple surgeries, the bills are adding up adding insult to serious injury.
So, there's going to be a good party for a good cause, to support Shane's race to recovery. Wednesday, Nov. 17, starting at 4 p.m. there will be a silent auction at the Rusty Rudder, one of the racing community’s favorite hangouts. There will be auction items, live music and some of racings biggest names.
Bidding will end at 8 p.m. but the party will continue at the Lake Norman Comedy Zone with comedian Shaun Jones, one of the nations top touring stand up comedians who has been featured on television stand up hours and acted alongside Jamie Foxx in feature films.
To attend the event you will need to purchase a ticket in the form of a $40 donation here. In addition to the party, everyone that attends will receive an exclusive “Heal The Real Deal” t-shirt, and be entered in a raffle for some great prizes. And all food and beverage proceeds will go towards Shane’s recovery. So cheers to Shane Hmiel, because he's the real deal and in time will heal, with our help!
