Ok, to be honest, I'm still not sure who won or what the scoring method was, but wow, that was one awesome way to spend a day! 750,000 people, just on the Detroit Side, were lined up in 80 degree weather to watch one of the most unique spectacles I've ever seen. Prop planes, and very fast ones I must add, fly through an obsticle course of inflated Red Bull Pylons, do loopy do loops, and then scream thru them again! Sideways, upside down, stright thru, at speeds that were amazing and we were so close! The crowd loved every minute of it. The only race of the 10 worldwide that was international, because of Canada being on the other side of the River. There were over 500,00 Canadians on their side too!
Best part: Wherever there's Red Bull you know there's Vodka to be had! Zodiac was featured right on the waterfront at Andiamo's Italian Bistro, so that's where I spent my day!! Zodiac-plane, Plane-Zodiac. Could it be any better? Add a nice Caprese salad and another Zodiac Vodka and Red Bull and it brings tears to my eyes just thinking about it.
If you have a chance to see this next year, you should go. It's well worth the trip!!
