ALL RIGHT, HERE WE GO. IT IS RACE WEEKEND AT TALLADEGA. NASCAR FANS FROM ALL OVER MAKING THEIR WAY TO THE SUPERSPEEDWAY. SOME OF THOSE FOLKS HAVE BEEN OUT THERE SINCE WEDNESDAY, AND THAT’S WHERE WE FIND �������� 13 MYA CALEB MYA. HOW IS IT LOOKING OUT THERE THIS MORNING? IS IT ROWDY YET? WELL, CARLA SKY, WHAT I WANT TO SHOW YOU IS WE HAVE GOTTEN A LITTLE BIT CLOSER TO THE SPEEDWAY, BUT AS YOU CAN SEE, IT’S STILL PRETTY QUIET OUT HERE. NOT TOO MUCH GOING ON. THE PEOPLE IN THE CAMPGROUNDS, WE HAVEN’T HEARD ANYTHING FROM YOU YET. I’M PRETTY SURE THEY’RE NOT UP. THEY PROBABLY WERE UP LATE LAST NIGHT HAVING A GOOD TIME AS THEY’VE BEEN TELLING US ABOUT. WHENEVER WE CAME OUT HERE TO SPEAK WITH THEM YESTERDAY, AND THEY ACTUALLY SAID THAT THEY’RE REALLY EXCITED FOR EVERYTHING THAT’S GOING TO HAPPEN THIS WEEKEND. AND THE FANS THAT WE DID SPEAK WITH TRAVELED FROM NEW ORLEANS. AND EVEN AS FAR AS VIRGINIA, THIS IS A YEARLY TRADITION FOR MANY. BUT THIS YEAR THEY’RE LOOKING FORWARD TO MORE THAN JUST THE RACES AND PARTYING ON CAMPGROUNDS. NASCAR HALL OF FAMER BOBBY ALLISON WILL BE HONORED WITH THE PARADE LAP DURING THE PRE-RACE CEREMONIES. BOBBY ALLISON WAS A MAJOR PART OF THE SPORT, SO IT’S AWESOME TO SEE THINGS LIKE THAT THAT THEY STILL DO THAT, YOU KNOW, NOT EVERY SPORT ALWAYS DOES. RECOGNITION OF THE PEOPLE WHO CAME BEFORE THEM. YOU KNOW, IT’S A LITTLE BIT MORE EXCITING THAN JUST LIKE A NUMBER RETIREMENT FOR A JERSEY OR SOMETHING FOR FOOTBALL. AND THAT PARADE LAP WILL BE DRIVEN BY ALLISON’S GRANDSON. AND EVENTS WILL KICK OFF TODAY AT 830 THIS MORNING, HOPEFULLY WITHIN THE NEXT HALF HOUR, WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO FIND SOME OF THOSE FANS AND SEE IF THEY’VE WOKEN UP. LIVE IN TALLADEGA, MYA CALEB �������� 13. ALL RIGHT.
