22nd
Annual Dodge Chili Bowl Nationals and
Where They Come From
Lonnie
Wheatley, TULSA, Okla. (January 5, 2008) – Distance is no object.
Nor are any supposed travel
concerns. Perpetually over-inflated fuel prices be damned.
There
is no stopping those intent upon reaching
Tulsa, OK, each January, as is evidenced
by the 285 entries for the 22nd
Annual Dodge Chili Bowl Nationals, set to
unfold atop the ¼-mile Tulsa Expo Raceway
clay oval inside the QuikTrip Center next
week, January 8-12.
Entries
have been filed from all corners of the
country and beyond, with 29 states as well
as Canada and Australia represented.
