Our Drivers?

How many times have you went someplace with your loved one, and some jerk starts yelling obsentities at them. Because maybe they think that you cut them off? Or your sitting in your seat at a sporting event, and some drunk next to you starts yelling things that only comes out of the mouths of sailors? And it always happens when you have your kids with you.


Now Im sure that at times you feel like just getting up and punching that person in the mouth. But then something inside says, just let it go. Then you start to think. Man I wish that person would have some kind of respect, especially since my kids who are sitting right here. But what really comes to mind is, Im a human being, and how can one human act like that?

Or what did I do so bad, that made that other person flip me the bird. Or make them yell crap at me. I know that inside it just really gets you mad. Especially when they disrespect your loved one. Whether it be a wife, mother, father, son or daughter. After all, we are part of the same human race.


You hear all kinds of trash coming out of the fans mouths. And usually with no respect to who is sitting next to them. Who cares that Nascar is a family sport? Who cares that the kids love Nascar, just as much as we do. We all know that the drunk sitting next to you doesnt. Because when you ask him to watch his mouth. What is the next thing out of it? Usually some kind of word that is slang for be quiet. Or the most popular one. I paid for my ticket just like everyone else.


Well the point being. How do you think the drivers feel when you get a few who yell,”you suck”? Or even worse things then that. Remember that these drivers are just as human as us. And usually they have their families at the track with them. Im sure that their kids ask them? Why are people yelling things like that at you? What did you do to that person, that made them say those things to you?


So why not show them the same repect, that you would one of your own family members or friends. But its usually the ones who say those things. Who have no respect for themselves. Or have had to much to drink, and can’t handle their liquor. Next time try to think about the drivers loved ones, who have to hear that kind of garbage.

After all, it is you the fan who made them famous. And it is also, you the fan who tears them down. All they are doing is showing up week after week to race an automobile. Is this the price that a driver should have to pay, because you get a few who think it is cool to act worse then the kids at the track? When you talk to them? Do they yell back at you,”you suck”? or do they flip you the bird? Im out
