Role Models and Heroes...a dying breed

Prior I just ran into %%%%%@ the airport here near VIR where he was testing 2day and my 4 year old nephew wanted an autograph and we were like 2FOOT away and mr JERK himself said No!!!! Thanks 4 everything now how do I explain 2 a 4 year old that the man u love and look up 2 will have nothing 2 do with u when the cameras arent around!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


i got the same treatment from "%%%%%" OUT OF HIS Ass in Phoenix also.....he never even acknowledged the many fans that kept callling his name...he was only 5 feet away....staring at nothing. He could at least waved...but just let us yell and then he finally walked away

%%%%% is an ass. How quick he forgets the fans


if your son had had a twinkie or a moonpie in his hand %%%% would have stopped to talk...

Wow, %%%% is our favorite BUT I would be devistaed if we ran into %%%% and he ignored my son. Can not imagine how my son would feel...NOT GOOD!

The %%%% post are a little disturbing....actually alot! If my sons room wasn't completely decorated in %%%% including a 5 foot fathead of his car on the wall I would let my son read these post BUT I think I will pass and just let him think %%%% is a nice guy.....


These are just a few of the comments I encountered on a fan page on Facebook this evening…it’s sad that a man who so many look up to and support by patronizing the sponsors who support him can be so cruel. In a sport that is fan driven it is essential that a Driver be aware of the importance of his fan base no matter what kind of day he has had. NASCAR teams are having a difficult time keeping sponsors and when you have to find a new one I’m sure that potential sponsors are looking for comments on the appeal or lack of appeal a driver has. Being mean and nasty to a young child whose parents spend money is not the way to win friends and get new sponsors for next year. Wonder what Nabisco and Burger King would say if they knew how nasty this former “Hero” was to a 4 year old boy.
