Michael Ballard is an artistic genius. There is no place on earth like the world famous Full Throttle Saloon.

Still needs to be finished setting up. Park in the non motorcycle area and you get to walk past the swamp and the bowels of the back area to get up front. Unique venue for sure, not sure if/when the new location of the FTS will grow into the hype as the old one was. Still got a drink, listen to band, bought some apparel, and run from the mosquitoes…

We tented a couple nights during the rally. Staff was helpful and friendly. Showers and bathrooms decent, always seem to have someone taking care of things. Breakfast buffet hit the spot before heading out for the day. Jessie was quick to thank us for staying. Oh and NEVER miss a Jackyl show!!!

This is where Full Throttle Saloon is located and where the HD Pan America off road demos are taking place. The concerts are free if you paid to camp there. Big acts too. Hank Williams JR and Tesla, just to name a few. Google the venue.
