  • Russo and Steele Tent Collapse Slideshow

    I'm sure many of you heard about the Russo and Steele tents collapsing this past weeking. It was said the storm that rolled through here for the majority of last week and mainly over the weekend may have been the worst storm Arizona has ever experienced in its history. It was absolutly crazy, sinkholes in the middle of roads, roads washed away, power was out in certain areas, trees toppled over into buildings, a tornado watch and confirmed tornado in Blythe, AZ.....it was just insane!

    Well unfortunately close to the Barrett Jackson auction there were some Russo and Steele auction tents. When the storm hit them, the tents toppled over and were thrown north and landed on the Loop 101, a 6 lane freeway (3 each way) which DPS immediately shut down to prevent passerbys from being injured.

    Check out the slideshow of the damage..

    DISCLAIMER: if you're squeamish then don't watch. The value of some of the cars and the damage they received is enough to make any car lover lose their lunch.

          The tricky part is getting out of the way when the auctioneer slams his gavel down!

                yeah it was definitely a bad slideshow to watch. The storm was terrible and its still cloudy a bit here, we got a little over 50% of our annual rainfall in about 3 days of rain lol. I'd got 2 nice chunks of windshield missing from rocks smashing into it from all the dirt that washed onto the roads.....

                ALL I WANT TO DO IS WASH MY CAR!!!!!!

                  I'm sure they have some sort of insurance right? At least some of them are repairable.
