Palin Rally

Cassie and I went to the Road to Victory with Sarah Palin rally in Richmond yesterday and had SO much fun! The gates opened at 11 and the program started at 2. We got there about 10:30. It took about an hour to get through security. The event was held at the Richmond International Raceway. Originally it had been planned that it would be at a much smaller venue but the ticket demand quadrupled what they thought it would be so they moved it. I'm glad we got there when we did! we had to wait for a really long time for the program to start but we got a really great seat. All of these people didn't. And why did we? Cause my daughter's mom rocks, that's why!


When we first got to the bleachers I asked a nice man working if we were to sit wherever we wanted. He said yes but whispered to us that if he were us he'd sit right next to this sectioned off area of the bleachers because that's where the important people were sitting. Turns out he was right! We also got to see the motorcade coming in which was super cool! We had the best time and I'm so glad we went. Afterwards we tried to get Sarah's autograph but there was a pack of crazy men pushing us out of the way. I'm not sure why. Surely they didn't think the Secret Service would let them get too terribly close to her. Cassie did manage to get Hank Williams Jr.'s autograph. Enjoy the pictures! The guy in the white shirt is her husband. Hank Williams JR. is wearing the Redskins jersey. I've found some press pictures that we're in but I can't post them on my blog.

Stinkin people and their stinkin signs....
