Line-Up, this may bum you out but I Tweeted that last Saturday afternoon. We also mentioned that the press conference had been canceled. There was just nothing official to post online because there was nothing scheduled.

Bobby, I think it's just been a tough year for introducing new events and they parked it for a year to work on more plans.

SUPERCROSS RACE CANCELED -- A new international Supercross race planned for Oct. 16 at Sam Boyd Stadium has been canceled. No explanation was given.

The single-night event was to be promoted by Feld Entertainment, which also owns the AMA Supercross Series.

The event was to fill a slot vacated by the loss of Feld's U.S. Open for Supercross at the MGM Grand. The Open had been held annually in Las Vegas since 1998 but will not return this year.
I think the Open in its current format had sort of jumped the shark. I'd heard a couple of rumors on the new event, and it had some different things happening with it that would have made it pretty interesting.

That’s funny…..ha ha……

Do you enjoy the sport of SX? I’ll assume the answer is yes since you are posting on a board like Vital.

If so, you should thank everyone at Feld.
1. funny... ya think... not really.

2. never assume anything from people you don't know.

3. we do thank the riders that risk their lives riding on sketchy tracks.

4. if you want to kiss someone's ass... then be our guest.

There's hookers in Vegas? And they give out things for free? Interesting.

Sport is dying anyway.
Like Anaheim area, Vegas is filled with 909/951 type bros and their accompanying tattooed 20K Milli skanks. This crowd is broke, parents arent paying the way anymore, and the money people don't want to deal with or be around that kind of shit and arent going either.

Shame because I have the hookup at the MGM. And that was the ONLY reason I went. Otherwise TV is fine, with none of the hassles.


Vegas was packed this year and im pretty sure Anaheim 1 was sold out. Apparently the parents are still paying the way

A2 was half empty this year, baby. Back in the day it would be sold out.
SD was pretty dead too, and that place was packed rain or shine for decades.

umm.... drinks are on the house (and have always been) if you are spending more than nickel slots....

i hit the us open several years.... cool venue.... good time...... but not really that good of racing..... super tight track.... get the holeshot, get the win, was pretty much how it went...

If so, you should thank everyone at Feld.

So you're NOT a fan of SX then?

That would explain a lot......

I would expect (not assume, since you correctly told me not to) that someone with such a strong opinion on a subject would be at least somewhat educated on the topic, which apparently you are not.

So never mind, forget what I said, think what you want.

And by the way, if you knew me at all you’d know that ass kissing is the furthest thing from my mind. As you can see I don’t post much on here, but I will speak up and correct people when I see a post as far off as this one.

I understand that a good many of you here don't like Supercross. But you had better do all you can to keep it moving forward, because it's the only thing that keeping this sport afloat as far as pro level racing.
