I am honored to say that I’ve been part of their “Phat Fridays” since they dropped the first one at Mag …

The event kicked off at 2 and by the time I got there the parking lot was filled with metal ready to be splashed. Never in my life have I seen so many cars queuing at a car wash and some of the rides didn’t even …
