I was sitting in a lower section on the frontstretch when Ward Burton won the Daytona 500. I had my 'bag o goodies' (cameras, souveniers, etc) between my feet. At one point during the race, I felt my gearbag move. I looked down beneath the bleachers and caught a glimpse of a dungboy using something I can only describe as a 'pole and hook' device, trying to snag my bag out from under me. Luckily, it was wedged between my feet and I was able to grab it before the excrement in human form managed to steal it. Of course, by the time I waded through the crowd and got downstairs, he was long gone. I've been hanging out in the nosebleed section ever since... So, if you're sitting low, watch yer stuff. Barry |

I'm curious as to whether this sort of thing happens with any frequency at
other tracks around the country.

All the sections I've seen had a wood backing (where old seats had been
stuck on wood bleachers, I'm assuming)...there's no way to get anything
under there...
Of course, I haven't been in the Campbell section...

a mess for anyone trying to get out through the bottom/back of the
grandstands (which is pretty mcu everyone).
I've never had anyone try to lift my camera bag, but I could see it
happening. Surely there willl be thugs in groups of 50k+ people, and
certainly more than one or two in a crowd of 100k+.
