It opened yesterday (05-06-21) and will be going on until this Saturday, May 8th (05-08-21) in Elgin, OK. It's back, bigger, better and badder that ever before, Crawds N' Rods 2021! Last year they had to cancel due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but 2021 is happening right now and it's looking like it might be one of they're best yet!

Coming to the Great Plains Coliseum this weekend Saturday, April 10th and Sunday, April 11th (04-10-21 - 04-11-21) Mountain Metro Ambucs and Sweet Temptationz Car Club present the 2021 Trykes N' Tread car show. It's a great time and for a good cause. Proceeds will go to purchase AmTrykes, materials to build wheel chair ramps and to fund scholarships for health care professionals who assist disabled persons and those who suffer from limited mobility. You'll see every imaginable type of car, truck, bike and even bicycle at Trykes N' Tread and all in one place! It's the perfect way to spend a weekend with family and friends.

Really? I got to be honest, I've never seen this one before.

2,000 American drivers were surveyed and 31% of them admitted that the inside of their vehicle was totally overwhelmed with stuff that didn't need to be there.

We have seen a lot of changes in sports the past few years with the Washington Football Team and Cleveland Baseball Team. Looks like more changes are wanted by the Cherokee Tribe out of Tahlequah, Oklahoma.
