Saturdays at the Big Butler Fair have come to be known as “Trucker’s Day” as the huge semi trucks come to town. But before the 7:00pm show that is strictly for the semi trucks, the strong running local 4x4 trucks get their chance to hook to the sled. In the afternoon, the Open 2.6 diesel 4x4 Trucks as well as the Pro Street GAS 4x4 trucks will pull in front of the grandstand. While these trucks are still mostly highway legal, the will astound with their awesome power pulling action.

And then in the evening the big, big trucks come out to play at the Big Butler Fair. One class is for the local over-the-road driver to see what his truck will do against other similar machines. The next division will bring the famed Pennsylvania Posse to the track with their highly modified single charger semi trucks. And the culmination of the evening will be an appearance by the world renowned Big Rigs Semi Trucks with multiple turbo-chargers and upwards of 4000 horses under the hood.

A Big Butler Fair original! Invented at the Big Butler Fair, Nothing can compare to the sights and sounds of smashing, crashing and bashing school buses. So don't miss out on the the infamous school bus demolition derby hosted by the Big Butler Fair.

School Bus Demolition Derby starts at 7:00pm

As the green flag signals the start, the spontaneous roar of missing, un-mufflered, dilapidated automobiles, resembling the freeway rush hour and herds of stampeding elephants. The "junker's" radiators start gushing steam geysers, blown tires belch bits of burning, stinking rubber and fenders buckle under the constant banging of bumper-to-bumper collisions. Drivers circle in a frenzy and rip at hapless victims less able to maneuver. 

Demolition Derby Championships start at 7:00pm

In the rush, cars overturn, some completely on their roofs. As the merciless competition dwindles, the tactics become more dramatic. The winners of these contests possess the attributes of a true showman, a bravado, recklessness, nonchalance and insanity. 

Many of the top-rated modified four-wheel-drive trucks from the tri-state area will pull at the Big Butler Fair on Friday evening. Two divisions are scheduled in this session.

The first class will be for the twin turbo-charged diesel 4x4 trucks while the second division is an open affair with the mountain motor gasoline trucks taking on the awesome modified diesel machines.

Both classes will run for valuable USA-EAST points as well as over $5,000.00 in purse money posted by the Big Butler Fair.

Aaron Tippin is a force of nature, a man whose passion for music fuels an array of other vigorous enthusiasms. Apart from writing and recording songs and wowing crowds with his live appearances, Tippin is also a pilot, farmer, winemaker, outdoorsman, avid bodybuilder and devoted family man. He even runs his own record label. It's no surprise then that so many in the music industry regard this tireless South Carolinian as the "Hillbilly Hercules."

Alabama has produced its share of country-music stars, and with the emergence of Weston Burt, the state may be poised to add another to its pedigree.

For the 27-year-old singer and songwriter, the stage is his home.
