Back when I was a little youngin', spending my warm summer days inside playing NASCAR on our Mac computer, I often wondered to no one in particular why Nike or other companies didn't sponsor NASCAR. I mean they put their logo on everything else and NASCAR is like the lazy-man's advertising billboard. Well my friends, call me Nostradamus because that day has arrived.
Puma has started to create and promote products for NASCAR like gloves and driving boots. Like NASCAR drivers need to have special boot for driving a car. Shoot, I do it every day in regular shoes.
In this day and age of "Vagasil: The official vaginal cream of the NBA" I find it goofy that it took this long for them to get into the NASCAR game. NASCAR is a $4 billion dollar market* and I knew, even as a young child, that NASCAR would be a good market to be in. What, Rednecks can't buy $120 sneakers?** I should have gotten into advertising.
*-statistic I just made up
**-The good people at "Blogger" and Dicky Jay Industries deeply apologize to all rednecks and their familys. We fully understand that the red neck income is higher then most people realize and regret any harmdoing. Hey, at least you aren't white trash. you can atleast afford to buy the cars you put up on blocks in your front yard!***
***-Again, we apologize to all White Trash and their non-branching family tree. Hey, at least you have a job.

Yes, dear brother, you are a genius. Puma will take off now. Actually, rednecks WILL spend that much on anything Nascar. They spend at least $50 in bumper stickers,per vehicle. Why not Nascar inspired shoes? If they go camo AND Nascar, it's a done deal. Will you write my disclaimer? LOVE the fact that you're blogging. YAY!!!!
Do you remember when NASCAR was only sponsored by beer and cigarette companies? Ahhhh...those were the days, when the kids could kick back and smoke and drink with their parents and enjoy a little racin'.
NASCAR is getting a little too mainstream for me. But, you did indeed "call it".
