Hogs and Dogs Thrills West Richland
Posted by Matt McGee under West Richland Events
As far as I know, the West Richland population is a little more than 10,000 these days. Last night, that many people poured into the Bombing Range Sports Complex for the 8th annual Hogs & Dogs event. Yep — the organizers are estimating a crowd of 10,000 people this year. Holy you-know-what!! (And they say they sold 4,000 hot dogs!)
There were rows and rows of motorcycles — seemed like mostly Harley Davidsons from what I could tell. There were apparently classic cars on display, too, but the McGee family must not have fought through the crowds to that part of the park. We did enjoy hot dogs, chips, and soda pop for dinner … listened to a little music … saw some friends … and caught the very end of a stunt motorcycle performance by Jason Britton.
All in all, West Richland should be proud. This is a fun event and we’re glad we stopped by this year. But if it keeps growing … how many more people can they fit at the Bombing Range Sports Complex? I guess that’s for someone else to figure out.
I took some pictures last night and posted them on Flickr: Hogs and Dogs 2008 - West Richland, WA. Here are a couple of my favorites…enjoy!
