Dion Dawkins at Watkins Glen Intl. Today

[Mike in Horseheads]

Dion was WGI today as grand Marshall of the IMSA 6hrs at the Glen.  LOL, He didn't know he was in the Finger Lakes.

As you know about 20 miles up the road for me.

 

My guess is that either Salens or the Bills threw some $$$ at him and said go say 4 words lol

This jumped out at me like crazy! I’ve spent much of the afternoon looking at adding some time before the Bills opener and going to Watkins Glen. My wife loves mountain/gorge settings and waterfalls. She saw about a 30 second video of the falls, and she changed our flights already. She really likes that stuff.  I’m open to suggestions for where to stay for a night in Watkins Glen if you/anyone know the area.

I bet Salen’s. I was there for a Cup series race and Marcell Dareus was the Grand Marshall walking around with that sailor hat.

Thought Marcell only liked drag racing. Is there a Mongolian Buffet near there?

The Glen Harbor Hotel is the only place worth staying at in Watkins Glen...  https://www.watkinsglenharborhotel.com/

Or your could stay in Corning or Horseheads for all the brands.  Be careful not to try and stay there the week of NASCAR

 

Watkins Glen St Park is where the gorge is and waterfalls, if your up to hiking it ya can do that...  https://parks.ny.gov/parks/142/

On our way home from the stadium we always drive by that Mongolian Buffet and I think of that drag racing incident with Dareus everytime lol

Cordy Glenn was never that good at pulling... but he and Sammy Watkins were on the Bills at the same time.

 

They should have installed a WR screen with LT sprinting out wide to block. Boom. Watkins Glenn.
