Last night I settled in on the couch with a glass of wine in one hand and the remote control in the other. I had a dilemma — the NASCAR Clash at Bowman Gray Stadium was scheduled to start at the same time as the Grammys.
Although I am not quite in touch with the pop scene these days as I was in my younger years, I still enjoy the Grammys. I also was Jonesing for some racing action, especially after catching some of the Rolex 24 the week before.
I got a little lucky — the NASCAR event started later than stated because the last-minute qualifying race ran long. So I could see the Grammys’ opening performance and flip back in time for the engines firing.
But this isn’t about my channel-surfing. The QOTD is this — do you watch the Clash? It doesn’t count for points, it’s up against the Grammys and possible NBA/NHL games, plus all the other Sunday shows.
Does the venue matter to you? I know I watched it more when it was at the Los Angeles Coliseum — it was less appealing at Daytona because, well, the “real” race would be held there soon enough.
So, race fans, what say you? Sound off below.
