It's hard to be a diamond in a rhinestone world and Dale Hummel

George for another four years now on with the show

Welcome to Beyond the Ring this is Dale Hummel along with co-star Ryan Rash. Hello, hello, hello.

Ryan, I'm excited about our current events as usual, but I'm the most excited about something you shared just a little bit with that I'm looking forward to hearing the entire story of one of your events this weekend. I do take a slight bit of pleasure in your pain.

Well, it was quite an eventful weekend for me. I was judging two shows in Texas, but

stayed in Fort Worth on Saturday night because everyone knows that I like the nightlife of it all in bars are back open in Texas,

and so I was going to explore some of that.

Show was only about an hour and a half away from downtown Fort Worth.

So get up early, get ready, get an escalate.

And I want to preface this by like saying, first off, when I tell

this story, this car is not old. It is a 2016 model. Yes, it has over 100,000 miles on it, but I mean,

it's not, you know, at 360. It has never been in a major wreck or collision. It was bought new. So, I mean,

this is not something that should happen, but it does. So we're driving on along and it's,

you know, about to change time. So at 6 o'clock, it's still really dark in the morning.

And I'm on I-20. And for those of you that are not from Texas, don't realize that I-20 runs east and west across our great state in this very traffic highway.

I was in the fast lane, shocking.

I'm not going to say what speed.

What speed were you at?

Do you recall?

It was probably close to 90.

But anyway.
