With the grandstands virtually empty and in a driving rain, the Daytona 500 folks performed the Opening ceremonies solely for the people tuning into Fox Sports.
If there were 200 people in the stands, I would be shocked, but they still had the drivers (but I don't think their crews) and families standing in the rain, pretending there was no rain falling.
Then the USAF Thunderbirds from Nellis AFB here in Las Vegas performed the flyover and you could barely make out the silhouettes of the planes and a little of the smoke they laid down. Total waste of time and money for this.
Meanwhile, the rain is still falling and I don't think the 500 will go off today.
