Title: Bubba Burgers and the Day I met "Bubba"
Post by: Pit Boss Mike Hedrick on December 06, 2011, 02:49:37 PM

I was guests of Bubba Burger for all the races this year at NASCAR's Richmond International Raceway where they hosted the Bubba Burger 250.

I was honored to meet and become friends with Walter "Bubba" Eaves who invented the Bubba Burger. We were scheduled to shoot just a short 1 minute video but it turned out to be much more so there are two videos.

The first is the actual interview and at the end we were asked to pose for some camera men and when we did we kept talking.

My Cameraman saw what was happening and turned the video back on and caught what was next. Just two ole boys talking about their Military Service.

I've done interviews with many big names and I'll post some of those one day but this man created something we all love and was a great man to become friends with.

Seeya at the Bubba Burger 250 next year Walter!

Mike that's a great set of videos. 

 I'd say your one lucky guy but the word blessed seems to fit much better.

An older very tan man taught me years ago...

The harder and harder I work, the luckier and luckier I get.

Thanks and I like BLESSED better.
