Chance Meeting

By: Tom Sylvain

This was a while back when I was about 10 years old (I am now 14), anyway, I was on vacation with my grandfather in January. And we were staying at Daytona Beach..  So one night, my grandfather brought me to the dog racing track which is located right near Daytona International Speedway. And I was watching the Races without knowing that Dale Earnhardt and Rusty Wallace were sitting just a few rows back. (it must of been during Testing week at Daytona)

I turned around to stretch my legs, looked up, and I couldnt belive me EYES!!! I saw Dale and Rusty chatting and laughing toghether reallly having a good time. Of course they are very good friends. So I walked up there and said "hi" to them and shook their hands and that was it  (I'm kicking myself now for not getting an autograph!!!) but I did not want to interfere with their fun. And of course I wasn't a big fan of NASCAR back then, but i'm a guru now hehe.. It was a very cool experience for me!
