FATBOB's biker rally review
GULFPORT MEMORIAL DAY BLOWOUT 2003
Memorial Day Blowout Biker Rally May 23-25th, 2003 Gulfport, MS The invasiON of da CajON's :). Another year, another Memorial Day Blowout hosted by the ASGARD MC. It's a deep south tradition (21st annual and still counting), and one of the best rallies to go to in the entire year. They had everything a biker could want for a long weekend out partying. Biker rodeo games (weenie bite, slow race, barrel race), some rocking bands, dragstrip racing, a really good BIKINI contest and one of the BEST DAMN WET T-SHIRT CONTESTS I've ever seen... and of course they sell beer AND have primitive camping so you can drink all you want and just chill out with your buds. Also present was a good choice of food vendors, and of course the regular guys selling everything from sunglasses to the redneck rebel store (selling everything confederate a southern boy could possibly want), leather vendors, biker accessories... you name it, they was there. There was even a guy TITTY PAINTING when the sun went down... you know I love this rally ! A bike show, tatoo contest and lot's of big giant trophies to give away along with cash prizes for all the winners. You can tell that these guys have been putting on a good rally for a while, they seem to have it all down to a science. Maybe it's just because it's a biker rally actually organised by bikers FOR bikers ! :) I sure have a lot more fun every year at this rally than I ever had at Daytona. All in all I would guess that about 10.000 people or so showed up to camp for the weekend, and who knows how many just popped in for the day. Oh ya, why did I call it the ''invasion of the cajuns'' ? Cuz we're right next door to good'ol Lousiana, and I ain't seen so many cajun's since... well the last time I was down on Bourbon street. And the entire country KNOWS how the cajun's like to party... after all they DID invent Mardi Gras ! Like I said, I LOVE this rally. I went, I saw, I liked. And I had a great time. Definately put this rally on your list of places to go next summer, cuz if you don't ya'll will read about it here and wish that you were able to say that you wuz there!
