Parker and I were diving on our way out of the neighborhood, going to the craft store, an as we were going around the round-about a helicopter was circling over head. We both commented on it and how low it was. As we reached the light at the corner we noticed the Maverick gas station had it's entrances taped off and the workers were all out side. Parker said "I bet that helicopter is going to land there". I turned the other direction and parked in front of the Maverick just as the helicopter came over head and landed between the gas pump awning and the store. How in the heck could they land there and NOT hit the buildings??? But it landed as smooth as can be. Some guy jumped out and a camera man followed.
Landing at Maverick

Come to find out, Maverick has a contest and the winner does some extreme activity and "stops" in at a Maverick to get a drink and treat and then goes on their way. They have had snorkelers, zip liners, skydivers and this guy learned to fly a helicopter.
Pretty cool thing to see them land so close!
