Pre warning
The writer dude is on vacation. Too bad. I know with a title like Shitter Jam he would have had a field day with the word play. In fact I'm sure by the end of the article he would have somehow convinced us that the feeling you got after attending this event was equivalent to the feeling you get after you've taken a really good dump. Stoked. Word play. But he unfortunately missed it. So the coverage falls to me. Sorry.
The Washington Street crew had a fundraiser on Saturday. Money was raised for insurance and more importantly … the shitter. That's right. That shit cost money. They had product raffles all day thanks to a long list of generous sponsors and BBQ provided by Carolina Mikes Sauce Company. I gotta mention, this was the best BBQ I've had in quite awhile.
Damn that was good. A bunch of skaters showed and of course the locals ripped. They had a Death Race with two man elimination heats. The course wound thru the park and funneled into the back bowl where it was kill or be killed. Jake Reuter came away with the win. As I pointed out earlier, Im no writer. Here are a bunch of pics to tell the tale.
