SUPER WEIRD traces of occupancy are all that remain on the vacated 600-acre campground and biker entertainment destination known as the Sturgis Buffalo Chip®. The steady hum of V-Twin engines, the pounding thud of high-powered speaker systems and the unrestrained cheers and revs of huge concert crowds partying their faces off indicate the first full week of August has passed and another Sturgis Motorcycle Rally is in the books.
Bikes, cars, campers, trikes, and all sorts of wheeled contraptions and their riders have all headed home, but the same can’t be said for some of the wonderful, crazy and weird sh*t left behind by all the people who raged at the Best Party Anywhere®! Check out what was found.
A whole friggin’ fridge
