2008-08-21 - Bristol no longer just about bump and grind, crashes
The place has a bit of a reputation. One hundred and sixty thousand spectators don't come to Bristol Motor Speedway twice each season because of the scenic East Tennessee mountains. They come because this is the place where Dale Earnhardt rattled Terry Labonte's cage. They come because this is the place where Kevin Harvick tried to strangle Greg Biffle. They come because this is the place where Ward Burton threw his foot heat shields at Dale Earnhardt Jr., where Elliott Sadler punched an ambulance, where Jimmie Johnson flipped off Robby Gordon -- all in one night.
