That was a HOOT (yeah, I went that corny with it)

This was my first year going to Hoot on the Hill at Colonial Downs (hosted by the Virginia Ski Club and partially sponsored by Hooter’s and K-95).  I didn’t really know what to expect going into it, and after this experience all I have to say is- unless you like cornhole and drinking in public, it ain’t much. 

It was fun, don’t get me wrong.  If you have enough good people, food, and alcohol around you, you’ll be good to go.  But you can get that a lot of places.  The horses were a little extra excitement, but they mostly kept to the inner tracks for most races, and a lot of people weren’t on the rail so you weren’t even that close when you were watching.

So all that being said, my experience was pretty fun!  There were 10 of us in our group, and our plot had plenty of room for us.  We had a tent, little picnic table, bunch of chairs, coolers, blankets, booze, and bodies!  We didn’t even have a cornhole set with us and we still had a blast.  I guess the girl fight in front of us didn’t hurt. Plus two of our friends entered the hot wing eating contest (or maybe one more jumped in after she found the wings were boneless). They may not have won, but they got Hooters shirts! Lol

So if you’re looking for a more relaxed, watered down version of Strawberry Hill, this event is perfect for you.  Or even if you’re just looking to enjoy some nice weather with a little drinking in public with a few of your friends, I guess it’s worth the $20.  Couldn’t hurt right? At least it didn’t for me.

So much security...for 2 chicks?
