Field Observations - Part 2 by Jessica

We emerged from the theater after an unsuccessful round of bingo, heads hung in shame, and made our way through the second floor towards the lobby. As we crossed through the casino, we spotted a wild Dave in his natural habitat. 


Umbrella man in the corner was pretty excited too.

The Indy 500, which we hear is a cultural phenomenon in some parts of the United States, is a race where men and women dress up in funny jumpsuits and drive their cars in circles. The Wild Dave is quite invested in this phenomenon known locally as NASCAR. 

Dinner time drew near and we headed for the door. "I'll meet you down there. There's only 40 laps left," the wild Dave remarked. "They won't feed us without you," my mom replied. So, he left his race, a mere 40 laps to go, and walked to dinner with us. 

As we sat at the table, a technological device emerged from his pocket. It showed tables and cars on its screen. Minutes into dinner, he announced that Martin Truex had won.
