RICHMOND, VA (CelebrityAccess MediaWire) — The Bike Lot in Richmond, Va. was the scene of mass craziness on the weekend
of Aug. 23rd, 2009. Under a sweltering sun, the good folks came out in force
to witness the colossal event known as –THE NACHO JUMP.
This event was part of the annual "Best Friends Day" yearly
celebration which drew over 4000 people on this, the 10th anniversary of the
event. People came from as far away as Australia to be a part of what is
becoming a cultural event.
Guest host Oderus Urungus of the mighty GWAR shot-gunned beers, abused the
crowd, taunted the riders and even passed out into the Nacho-pit.
"The fine freaks of Richmond have invited me, knowing my love of
Nachos…and crack…and nachos, and ho's", said the cheese-smeared space
alien.
Also in attendance was BMX legend Matt "The Condor" Hoffman. Matt was in town to judge the event and act like a degenerate.
GWAR goes on tour this fall
with Lamb of God, Job For a Cowboy, and the Red Chord.
