The Gambler 500 Rally is a mostly off-roadRally-Style Navigational Adventure using cheap, impractical or fun vehicles to run through the country and pick up trash, remove abandoned vehicles and boats. Participants are encouraged to spend no more than US$500 on their vehicle; however, this limit is not enforced. Vehicles can be modified with no cap, but as public roads are used they should still be in compliance with the law. The Gambler 500 began in Oregon, which is now known as 'OG500', the event has since spread across the United States, Canada (Gambler 500BC) and Iceland (G500ÍS). The motto is 'Always Be Gambling″ abbreviated to 'ABG'.
Event overview[edit]
Teams typically consist of a cheap car, driver and navigator, with the objective to hit daily GPS navigational waypoints. It is a two-day event, with a party at the midpoint and another at the end of day two.
History[edit]
The Gambler 500, founded by Tate Morgan and the Oregon group began in 2014 as a challenge to see how far $500 cars could go. The first year had 14 cars, in 2015 the number of participants increased to 28, then 31 in 2016. The Gambler 500 gained rapid popularity growth in 2017, with over 800 vehicles participating in Oregon. In 2017, independent Gambler 500 regional events occurred in many areas. In the year 2018 there were roughly 4,000 attendees and 1,600+ vehicles at the base camp in Chemult, OR, which saw people from all across the U.S. and parts of Canada taking part in the fun and helping cleanup the highways and byways of OR. There was enough 'trail trash' collected to fill three 40ft containers. One local law enforcement officer said that he had nothing but good things to say for the event and participants, also stating that he only had 2 incidents where 'gamblers' were involved - only one resulting in a citation over the course of 3 days. The 2017 event in Winthrop, WA, was the second largest that year, with 125 vehicles attending.

Vehicle: purchase price of $500 or less! If you want to fix up your $500 ride, that is totally up to you, but the point of the rally is to try and navigate your $500 beater through a series of moderately rough trails/roads. It SHOULD include GPS equipment, paper maps, tools, a fire extinguisher, and camping gear. A CB radio or some other form of communication (besides a cell phone) would be handy if you break down.
Cost: FREE. Well, you get to run for free, but you'll have to pay for your own vehicle and gas and food and whatever expenses you incur.
Why: because it's going to be fun.
When: The rally will officially start on Saturday morning at 8:00am, but if you're traveling very far to get to the event, you should come camp out Friday night at the starting point so you will be there and be ready to go Saturday morning.
Where: TBA. I am trying to find a safe, large place to camp/start/park tow rigs as I'm sure many people will trailer their Gamblers to the event.
