Bristol Motor Speedway pays big money for raceweekend cleanup. One local high school's athletics makes around 5K for the weekend and they are only one of several groups cleaning up, so yes cleanup is also another huge cost. People can choose to go or not, but as football games, prices are rising an...

Boy scouts clean up the racetracks for free. They take the bottles to the recycle center and sell them to raise money. I know. My son did it once in the scouts.

I did some financial calcumalations. If a ticket averaged $100.00 for the show, and according to the media, there were nearly 18,000people there, then that works out to about $1.8 million for the night. Wonder how much Verizon made off each ticket. I remember reading an article years ago in Rolling ...

exactly...so I'm sure its not a Jimmy decision to not let water in...the venue makes those rules.....[/quote] Thats exactly why I really don't believe it was Buffetts idea. I think that giving the fact it was 90 degrees about 10 miles down the road from the pavillion and about 90 percent humidity, t...

I have been to Rockingham Dragway many times. On day they quit letting people carry beer bottles and cans in the gate. BUT THEY DID supply us with 1/2 gallon milk jugs to pour it in. They did have the customer in mind. That is when you could buy beer for $1.00 at the racetrack.

Why couldn't VWA hand out cups too, instead of being a bunch of arrogent butts. Guess they could SELL more water that way.

That's all we need is a drunk parrothead playing luke skywalker with an umberella

So, how did so many umbrellas get in there, and how did so many cameras get in there. I can understand someone smuggleing in a cigarette pack sized camera, but I saw several very large ones in there. Maybe a slack security. I have written VWA voicing my complaint, but as of yet they havn't gotten ba...

Ponchos, right...more like the plastic you get from the dry cleaners.

Yea, we were told no umbrellas either. It's posted on VWA web site. But there were at least 1000 of them there. Must have been the VIP parking people that got to bring in cameras and umbrellas.

I know he does't set the prices. But I have been to VWA when it used to be Blockbuster Pavillion. You were allowed to take bottled water in there. Prices on everything was much lower.

You could just have easily been hit in the head with one of the 18 inch tall $12.00 frozen margarita cups.

We went to the very soggy concert in Charlotte. Not a bad show at all. But several things really ticked me off. First off, the sign said NO CAMERAS. I saw a bunch of them. And not the little ones that could be smuggled in like a pack of smokes. BIG ONES! The second thing was the water. Verizon Wirel...
