Luckiest Backpacker in the World

March 10th, 2000

Yep, that's me!  I felt like I was Eddie Murphy in the movie "Trading Places" yesterday when I attended the Grand Prix.  Poor, unshowered backpacker unexpectedly turns into VIP eat-&-drink all-you-want passholder at Melbourne Grand Prix corporate box.  Jeff & Melissa, friends of Penny & Eric, had an extra corporate pass & invited me along.  I wanted to get a photo of our collection of passes & wristbands - it was almost comical.  3 neck passes and 3 wristbands each!  Great day!!!!

More info about the Melbourne F1 course at Albert Park.

One wristband even got us down into the drivers pit area - I searched out Jacques Villneuve's spot (wanted to get an autograph for Cory), but unfortunately Mr. big huge bouncer said was was there but "busy". 


Happy me by the start/finish line
