Saturday Night at Bowman Gray

I added a photo (hope I did it right to be seen on the main page) of a fight at Bowman Gray Stadium from “back in the day”. This fight makes the Burton/Gordon & Allison/Yarborough altercations look like childs play. I asked if anyone could name any of the people in the photo and gave a couple of hints. The 20R in the background and the curley haired guy trying to separate the fighters (“Fish Hauser”, a long time friend and crew member for Bobby Myers) are a couple of hints. There may also be a couple of NASCAR’s finest “officials” captured here as well. Have fun with it!

Can’t believe no one has started naming names yet. Mike Sykes, Rusty Racer. Where are you?

Randy, go to the other post of your photo where you have a couple of replies.

I recognize Glen Wood and possibly see Charlie Sheen in the white shirt directly below the 20R.d The guy behind Fish does look alot like Curtis Turner with the always present sunglasses.

As far as having fun with this, here goes….

Although this was a long time ago and he was old then and I do not see him, I would think that the ageless senior troublemakerJunior Milleris in there somewhere. Heck, I might even venture to say that he caused it, he usually does…

Too dang funny! Even Junior Miller was a toddler when this was taken. As far as Turner goes, I think that is him “Fish” is tryong to pull off Bobby. Keep em coming.

Sorry been busy last few days is Fish holding the flashlight so they can see whom is fighting or does Jimmy have it wearing out somebodies head.I can see Pee Wee, Whitey, Glen,Alvin, Toot, Enoch, Must have went to the fight and a race broke out. LOL. Thanks for sharing. We were just pups when this was taken.

Those were the days!

I found this poem in a 1953 Bowman Gray program that reminded me of this photo –

Turner was one tough customer.
