16th Annual Evel Knievel Days Kicks Off in Butte

For 16 years, fans of the legendary stuntman have descended on Butte, Montana. This year is going to be bigger and better as 2017 marks the 51st anniversary of Evel's career as a stuntman.

Since the festival was founded in 2002, stuntmen from all over the world have come to try and impress. In 2015 Greg Godfrey, of Nitro Circus, made the Guinness Book of World Records for jumping a semi truck 166 feet in uptown Butte. What will we see this year. I guess you will have to make the pilgrimage to find out.

It is FREE and open to the public. Now thru Saturday 7/29
