I slapped my Raiders Gameday! magnet on this truck before the Ashland 4th of July Parade a couple months ago and haven’t seen it since. I hope it is put to good use. I could use it today, actually, at the tailgate in Helena. Or maybe a Carroll fan would steal it here in Montana. In any event, you want to watch today’s game. You can watch it for free at noon PT here.

SOU in the Ashland 4th of July parade

fly over

They banned these for parade participants a few years ago but maybe not for the spectators. In any event, no one was complaining as it was HOT!
