Likewise with most of the dirt tracks my wife, and I frequent. Prayers start the night asking for a safe event for all of the participants, and a safe journey home for the fans after the event. Then followed with the national anthem that is usually sung by local talent, very seldom do they play a canned prerecorded rendition of it. I enjoy that most dirt tracks start their events with a prayer.
Likewise the have a deep respect for those that have served in the military and usually offer military discounts to veterans, and active military personal.
Nice tribute that they gave to the fallen 13 at your track, Champ......
