Stories from the Road – HOTLANTA

Boost Mobile Takes on Hotlanta

The good folks from Boost Mobile brought in the Freestylemx.com Worldwide Tour presented by Monster Energy to entertain the NASCAR fans yet again.  This week we flew in Boost Mobile athlete Jeff “OX” Kargola of Metal Mulisha fame, the “Real Deal” Jim McNeil, Jack Rowe and young gun James Carter for two days and six demos.  It was hot and humid and even a little breezy but that didn’t stop us.

The crowds were huge, slightly drunk and lots of fun as always at NASCAR- I mean who would of known that NASCAR and FMX would go together like shoes and socks?  Well they do and everyone else promoting their companies in the vendor area knows it too.  Of the 10-20 vendors like the Army, pain relief and tobacco companies, most are completely empty when we take to the air- that is value for your advertising dollars!

Anyway- all the riders got the job done and then some pulling some of the gnarliest Backflip tricks in the book.  Super, Barhop, Ruler and Heel clicker flips used to be seen only on the X-Games but the Boost Mobile Freestylemx.com crew puts them out live!  The crowds went nuts and even got into the show by judging our Best Whip and Trick contests.  We also gave away a ton of free Boost Mobile t-shirts, tank tops, hats and toys and the riders signed over 4,000 Boost Mobile autograph cards by the end of the weekend.

We are off to Idaho next and are having a contest there yet again. Let’s see how the crowd does there!  Check us out on Freestylemx.com and read the stories, post a question or upload your own photos of the show!
