Blues, Bruise, and BBQ at The Westside Sports Complex

1 of 24
Hungry patrons braved heat, mud, and even obstacles to attend the all-day Blues, Bruise, and BBQ - Cinco de Mayo Festival at the Westside Sports Complex on Saturday. The event featured a muddy 5K obstacle race, live music, evening martial arts, hot rods, and of course, a plethora of barbecue. Tented vendors and food trucks dished out fried favorites, craft beers, and every juicy meat imaginable to families, racers, and car enthusiasts alike. Indeed, it was a carnival for carnivores - sorry salad, you weren't invited. PHOTOS BY KATIE JOHNSON.
