Xiaomei Chen (MAnth’06) captures a slice of Americana as Bill Smith, left, and Ryan Hysell watch the Albany Independent Fair’s derby on Friday, Sept. 7, 2007. She says a demolition derby usually consists of five or more drivers competing by deliberately ramming their vehicles into one another. The last driver whose vehicle is still operational wins. Both observers said it was the best derby in Athens County, Ohio.
