The best part of that Chicago poker run was when me and warparty went to the liquor store and bought all the alchol for everyone and we had the whole truck bed full of ice, vodka, beer, mixers, cups ect. And on the way back were at a stop light downtown and bubba decides he wants a drink and gets out gets a cup and starts making a redbull, goose splash of cran and the light had turned green and were blocking traffic and people get out of the car behind us and walk up and he makes them a drink.

Would be questionable if a skater could keep up with Alez vite back in the day in key west. That video is epic!!

We are just talkin' different years. 08 was flat as a pancake with rain and I didn't run my boat. 07 was rough as hell (though not as bad as 06)...Delo cracked a stringer and one of the MTIs delaminated. He had stopped so somebody could jump in the lake and pee and I went over to see if everything was cool..then ran to the city. He told me he was going back cuz he was sick of getting beat up!

Scott dropping something off under the bridge had to be absolutely classic....

Oh...for the record...I love Apaches and Skaters...but I'd have to give it to the local team....Skater would win.

I have never been in a 41 Apache. Some real reviews from OSO members would be cool to hear about. I am a big fan of this old school vid! You gotta watch the whole thing......

:P

P.S. yes this race is on tape.
Too Funny!
