American Royal BBQ Competition

This has nothing to do with busses other than the fact that we took one here.

The American Royal is the World Series of BBQ competition right here in Kansas CIty, MO. Over 580 teams competing for cash and bragging rights with 80 teams in the Invitiation Division and about 490 teams in the Open Division. We're here as guests of Bethany Blues BBQ right on site and I have to say it's pretty exciting (of course it pales in comparison to an evening with Lew and his Bride). The event officially starts on Friday, but tonight we were the show as we shoe horned the Mothership into a space next the the Bethany BBQ smoker. We had to parallel park the bus, between two other contestants in only 52' feet of room, in a very packed parking lot at Kemper Arena.

Yes we have pictures of the clearance.

Oh boy. THis is going to cost me some Lew bucks. Calling to so close, forgot about the roadmaster on the back.

More pixs to come of the Pig Fest. JW will be drooling. Jon will still claim he's the champ and Ken will be climbin' on the back of Ellen's Harley for the trip out
