silly and adolescent....at least....I hope....Jr doesn't condone this....

many people hate Jeff Gordon for some reason....it seems Nascar fans are really only fans of one or two cars....they don't support the winners if they are not of their liking...

Actually you have Nascar fans and you have JR fans. Very little cross over. I rarely mess with this thread. You are NOT PERMITTED to criticize other peoples drivers as long as the driver(s) are JR. Stupid rule.

Hi cherry....just in case there are some folks who pass through and read this I would like to say that Jr has said more than once for his fans not to do this. Last year there were other fans throwing things on the track when JJ got wrecked, and many other instances as well. The problem with these fans is alcohol. It's unfortunate really!! Jr covers about 60-70% of the fan base so a good percentage of these drunks are his fans, yes......but he definitely does not condone it.

He's even asked the fans not to trash Teresa Earnhardt and made Eddie Gossage take down a not so kind billboard with mention of her on it.

Unfortunately all sport fans these days include weirdos and whackos who act unruly no matter what goes on [even internet sites have this problem] LOL. I've heard stories of people not feeling exactly safe in the stands late in a race because of the wild behavior.

I did not, however, see any of that type of behavior at Texas so I can't give you a first hand account. Maybe Texans are better behaved. :D **ducking**
