We were so pleased to welcome our guests and send them on an extensive tour of the offices, outlet store and warehouses. He received a first hand look of how Magnum runs and even gave the warehouse team a hand for a few minutes.

Academy Sports + Outdoors and Magnum Boots gives a local fan the Pit Crew Experience with Indy


Modesto, Calif. (April 14, 2010) — Academy Sports + Outdoors recently teamed up with Magnum Boots USA, the official footwear and clothing supplier of the Panther Racing team during a month-long promotion that sent one lucky winner to the April 11, 2010 Birmingham IndyCar race and raised $7,048 for the National Guard Youth Foundation.

Winner Mr. Aaron Hambright of Irondale, Alabama had the unique experience of suiting up with the Panther Racing Team pit crew in the #4 National Guard car with driver Dan Wheldon at the wheel. Mr. Hambright was able to shadow the pit crew team for the day prior to the race as they got the car ready for race day. Mr. Hambright received the very rare opportunity of riding in an official IndyCar two-seater, and experienced the track at every turn first hand.

“It was one of the best things I’ve done in my life”, said Mr. Hambright, the winner of the Pit Crew Experience. “Riding in the car was like the most intense rollercoaster I’ve ever been on.”

In addition, during the month-long promotion at Academy Sports + Outdoors, $7,048 were raised and donated to the National Guard Youth Foundation in support of at risk youth in the United Sates.
