There was no better way to kick off the football season than to spend an evening at The River for Jeep Night.

This month's theme was "NFL Pride Night" and everyone was sporting their favorite team Jerseys as they started trickling in at around 7pm.

A very special thank you to Big Al from the McAllen Convention Center for spending his Thursday evening at The River for Jeep Night. He brought along a magnificent concept display for a Jeep course and shared some of his ideas for the upcoming McAllen International Car Fest.

Burns Motors sent over their grill master David Nunez and provided hamburgers and hotdogs, making sure their attendees did not spend their evening on an empty stomach. Luckily everyone seemed to come with an appetite and ready for dinner.

Once the sun was down the headlights came on and the judging began. Texas Jeep Crawlers, Texas Off-Road Republic, and South Texas Rebels filled up the lot with their Jeeps. Not long after the Calaveras began scoping out the multitude of Jeeps and occupants displaying their NFL pride.

Once again Texas Jeep Crawler's Gabriel Reyna took it home, making this his second consecutive month as award recipient and the guy to beat at next month's "Karaoke Night".

We were happy to have the Bronco Boyz join us at this month's Jeep Night and as always, everyone is welcome to join us every second Thursday of the month for Jeep Night at The River.

So everyone pick your favorite songs, start your warm-ups and be ready for Jeep Night's "Karaoke Night" September 10th.
