The performers were as old as the wall itself and they must have done the same show a million times. They did "incredible one-handers and one-footers" while riding the wall and rode the vertical tube with "three guys at the same time." They brought out the Go-Cart too as a special, just for the crowd. So classic. 
The cow outside is always a fun attraction too. Anyone can jump on (at their own risk) and do as many laps as they want. The damn thing goes pretty fast too if you keep the handle open. Some jumps were added this year to spice things up. 
Of course the beer was flowing in the beer tent, the band was playing songs but the burn out grit remained quiet. We noticed some funny bikes showing that this crew has a good sense of humour. 
Nudity is always welcome at events like this and instead of some pole dancing, the organization hired two ladies (roaches) and set up a topless bike wash in a big tent. A sponge and a bucket each and they were in business. Hey, you gotta be creative at times. If you're into bikes, you might make it to Aarle-Rixtel two weekends in a row next year. First for the annual mini-FAT-JAM and then the following weekend for the Harley show. Depending on what you're into of course.

After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
