Dale Earnhardt Jr. will stay comfortable and stylish during 2009 with a continued relationship with the Wrangler(R) brand. Today, the denim giant proudly announced it will once again be the official jean of Dale Earnhardt Jr. for a sixth consecutive year. The NASCAR superstar will continue to be featured across a range of high-profile consumer promotions and Wrangler(R) marketing initiatives.
“It’s been an honor to work with Wrangler for all these years, and this relationship has always meant a lot to me,” said Earnhardt Jr. “Wrangler has been a great supporter of my family, my teams and the sport. I couldn’t be happier that we’ll continue to build on the things we’ve already accomplished.”

I knew there was a reason I’d been wearing Wrangler for most of my life when I saw Jr. in ‘em. ~grin~
Okay, ya’ll can laugh at me because I know most people follow other sports besides NASCAR as well. I don’t watch any other sports unless I have a grandkid or nephew I have to watch personally. I like Jr’s Wrangler commercials. My oldest daughter and I always have to call one another when one of us sees Jr in a new commercial. LOL Well, we started seeing that other guy in Wrangler commercials and I didn’t know who he was. Daughter didn’t know him either, we thought those commercials were a rip-off. The way I found out was that I was at a friend’s house discussing Jr and his Wranglers when I mentioned that sometimes they have the *wrong* guy in them. My friend’s 10 year old son then had to vehemently tell me about Brett Favre!!! He took me to his room and showed me all this stuff on his walls about Brett Favre and football and just couldn’t believe I was so ignorant!
