Way to go Ryan!

My brother works for Pepsi in Columbia. He is the mechanic that works on the trucks. A couple weekends ago Ryan attended a Pepsi truck driving contest at Worlds of Fun. He had to maneuver the delivery truck around multiple obstacle courses. Ryan decided to go because it was a free ticket into Worlds of Fun so what could it hurt? He Won!!! That’s right, he competed against guys who drive these pickup trucks everyday to make deliveries and he just works on him. He won $600. Plus, his boss was so proud of him that he told Ryan to go buy $500 worth of tools and charge it to Pepsi. There was another competition in St. Louis this weekend that Ryan was waiting for the results of to see if he would get to go to Nationals. For whatever reason, no one was able to compete so Ryan automatically gets to go to the National competition in Chicago, all expenses paid!!! How awesome is that! If he wins there he will get $5,000!!!! I am so proud of him!
