Bud Shootout position show last night

[jhen713]

Did anyone else watch the show last night and find it hilarious that they made Zippy pick the beer bottle of Lagano. In the big scheme of things I understand why but......lets be real about it. You know he had to feel like a complete idiot with his babysitter with him. I don't even think he sat on stage with the other drivers. It looked like he left the stage after Zippy pulled his number out of the bottle. It's not like they were all drinking beers around him.

They are really desperate for something to air it would appear. The next nail biter special will be picking pit stalls.

SPEED channel without NASCAR is like America's Funniest Videos without crotch hits, not worth watching!

He is better off there than where he was.

IMO if you like a certain driver you should stick with him at least still pull for him. You can still find another driver to cheer for. Just saying.

I agree completely. Labonte's three seasons at Petty were a nightmare. I am so glad Bobby got out of there. With the Roush/Yates engine building program,solid sponsors standing behind him,among other factors,Bobby is better off now than he has been in a long time.

I cheer for Matt Kenseth in addition to Bobby but Bobby is my sentimental favorite and always will be.

I wonder how much Labonte regrets now for turning down RCR?

Is it the Bud Shootout sponsored by Coors? Didn't Coors take over the sponsorship of being the official beer of Nascar?

Coors took over the pole award. They are the official beer of NASCAR also(i think). The race is still called the Bud Shootout. Thats why they changed the format and the eligibility requirements.
