Supercross rides into Petco Park
MILES MITCHELL | ASST. ARTS EDITOR
Petco Park added another marquee event to its resume, joining last year’s Bill Walton Basketball Festival and the upcoming 2016 All-Star Game.Where one would usually find a meticulously groomed baseball field at Petco Park, there was instead a complex dirt bike track on Saturday, Feb. 13 for the sixth race of the Monster Energy AMA Supercross season.
An adrenaline-filled night with action packed racing, crashes, in your face energy drink sponsorships, pyrotechnics, and energized announcers kept the crowd on the edges of their seats.
Eliza Vera, a University of San Diego alumna, attended the event, experiencing the racing sport for her first time.
