It has been in a previous post and I keep asking the same question " DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE AND IF I CAN GET TICKETS TO SEE IT LIVE??!???"
I'm in Vegas that weekend and would love to watch it live.
Thanks for any help in advance.
From what I understand, it's gonna be free.
The Fountain jump, there is a Bar sitting on half the run up to the ramp.
He's gonna practically back the bike up to window of the pub, which will be open for regular business,
and have 200 instead 400 feet run up to the ramp.
Hey, biggest thing, like he says in the article, is he's been practicing, and already feels a bit of a sissy for that alone.
I mean, rumor has it, Evel would just show up, size the jump up, drink about 1/2 a pint of whisky, and go for it.
Hey, anyway you look at it, it's 170 feet, with a postage stamp landing ramp to aim for.
His son made it, I think Metzger did it, both on dirt bikes.
1/2 the run up from what the other guys had, a little bit of wheel spin, a little too much throttle, a little squirrelly on takeoff, he's a grease spot in the road.
