Of course, it isn't even really Day 2, as many arrived today and tomorrow is their first full day. No matter, it was my second day in Nashville, so here you go!
Despite the rain, it's "all systems go" for the parade. First things first - you gotta get gas!
Leading the pack? Sterling Marlin, of course...
Next up we have:
And in a beautiful black SRT-10 (my favorite color):
And we're off!
So you say, "Big deal, a few Vipers drove around in the rain". WRONG! Some 300 snakes showed up for this very lengthy parade. It wound along several miles of interstate freeways and through the heart of downtown. And here is the kicker: They shut it ALL down for the Vipers - every last inch. Every freeway entry ramp, every side street, all the streetlights, EVERYTHING! I shot this picture hanging one arm out of the passenger window at speed...
Yep, another entry ramp to the freeway shut down for the Vipers. One of the funniest things I have EVER heard was on the FRS radios we were carrying. A woman, not with the Vipers, was complaining about being stuck on one of these freeway entrance ramps. "Yeah, I don't know what the deal is. Maybe the King of the Vipers died or something." Too funny!
