With racing over for the day and the GEICO 500 still to come, the fans at Talladega took to the infield for a "Big One on the Boulevard" celebration Friday night.

The night began with a parade along Talladega Boulevard--a route in the middle of the track where fans camp in RVs and celebrate all hours of night and day--featuring drivers Greg Biffle, Clint Bowyer, Austin Dillon, Jeff Gordon, Denny Hamlin, Brad Keselowski, Kyle Larson, Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and Michael Waltrip.

The Mardi Gras-style parade ended and the entertainment segued into a night of competitions that could truly only be found at this track and locale.

Barbecue sauce wrestling returned after a successful run here last season, and was joined by an "Angry Weiners" food competition and body pong (a contest involving buckets strapped to fans' bodies and water balloons thrown by drivers).

Drivers also mingled with fans.

The Talladega race weekend continues Saturday with the Winn-Dixie 300 in the Xfinity Series at 2:00 p.m.; the Sprint Cup Series' GEICO 500 is Sunday at noon.
