Damn, I'd need my shorts checked if I was one of the bystanders.   :o

I suspect that would have looked less frightening had the camera angle been from the other side of the road so less foreshortening of the images.

Maybe because you wouldn't have seen it coming.  But it WAS that close.  The spectator gets covered in the dirt stirred up by the crash.

I'm gonna purchase a personalized plate for my Pathfinder (Kegmobile).  I'm limited to 7 characters and obviously want it to be related to my brewery.  So thoughts on either HR BREW or HRBREWN.  I'm leaning towards the first.  If I could squeeze in an apostrophe at the end of HRBEWN that would be great, but I can't.  Thoughts?

LOL, can't say that I ever thought of thought.  Having said that, I don't think too many people here in this small town would confuse my plate with something Jewish......especially since my truck has large logo'd door magnets.  Still though, something to consider.  Thanks.

Since the truck already has Hammond River Brewing on the side, how about something a little more fun for the plate?

BREWSKI, BREWBUS, BREWGUY, LUVBREW... something like that. I like KEGMOBL, too.
