Nitro Circus
Last Saturday MGM Grand Garden Arena hosted the Nitro Circus. I was lucky enough to go see it. What a fun and crazy night.
Highlights of the night:
1. Travis Pastrana purposed to his long-term girlfriend, Lyn-Z Adams Hawkins. Pastrana said “I wasn’t supposed to do this until the end of the show, but I was so nervous I couldn’t wait. This is a night of world-first stunts, and this stunt involves the rest of my life." (If anyone is wondering...Lyn-Z said yes.)
2. Travis and Cam Sinclair landed the world’s first-ever, two rider synchronized FMX double black flip.(It was AMAZING!!!)
3. Travis used Gregg Godfrey's, CEO of Godfrey Entertainment, children to complete the first-ever three person FMX back flip. (Yes...they landed it!)
4. Aaron ‘Wheelz’ Fotheringham landed a front flip off the Giganta ramp in front his fellow Las Vegans. (Thank you Brother Fotheringham and Nick for the tickets.) Aaron has been in a wheelchair his entire life. What an inspirational story. Aaron makes you realize that how your life turns out and the things that you do with your life are all dependent upon your attitude. He has a truly inspiring attitude. He is the perfect example of what it means to never give up. When life gives you lemons you make lemonade. He is someone that people should look up to and strive to be like.
And finally...
5. The first-ever two rider mini bike combination jump! (It was neat!!)
Nitro Circus members are CRAZY and extremely talented! What a great show. If anyone says they aren't athletes...they are MISTAKEN. If anyone wants to read more about Nitro Circus and see some of these stunts check this link out...http://www.nitrocircuslive.com/
