I Want a Mega Ramp

And Why I'll Never Get One

Bob Burnquist has a Mega ramp in his back yard. How does a girl go about getting one of those for herself?


What I want for Christmas: A year's supply of Smith's Rosebud Salve from C.O. Bigelow, a new bike, and…oh, yeah, a Mega ramp in the yard.

If you haven't seen pictures or video of Bob Burnquist's Mega Ramp, you should really check it out. It seems crazy to have something like that in your back yard. It is huge and stunning and I have to wonder what the neighbors think. According to the New York Times, airplane pilots plan their course to pass over the ramp. That is how massive it is.

I'm pretty sure my husband won't let me have my own Mega ramp. He would have some solid arguments against it: it wouldn't fit in the yard, I tend to pull off amazing injuries, and a $280,000 Mega ramp would look silly outside of house worth less than half of that.

It looks like while Bob Burnquist has his Mega ramp to ride, I'll have to make do with the kids' slide!
