NASCAR is in Music Metropolis.
The Cup Collection is underway on the Nashville Superspeedway for the Cracker Barrel 400 right now, and nearly all people and their mom is in attendance. You could have NASCAR legends, nation music stars, and hell, even a few of Whiskey Riff’s personal are taking within the race (whereas I’m at residence running a blog about it… what’s occurring right here?) Nation music star and Nashville native Ernest was named Grand Marshal, and he delivered a rousing command, Chase Rice drove the tempo automobile, I noticed Randy Houser was there… if you happen to stay in Nashville and also you’re not out on the race, what are you even doing along with your life?
Plus, 2-time Whiskey Riff Raff podcast visitor and “buddy of the progrum,” Ryan Blaney has been dominating. We’re early into Stage 3 on the time of this weblog so hopefully he can maintain on to take residence the win.
We bought a pair Nashville bars on the hoods, with Tootsie’s sponsoring the #99 automobile of Daniel Suarez and Chief’s sponsoring the #67 automobile of Corey Heim.
Morgan Wallen and Ernest had fairly the view:
However maybe the perfect photograph of the night time… Morgan Wallen and NASCAR icon, The King himself, Mr. Richard Petty. I imply, say what you need about Morgan Wallen’s music, he’s the most important factor in nation proper now. That’s one helluva duo…
In fact, Richard Petty received 200 races, an virtually legendary quantity that also stands untouched, throughout his legendary profession that spanned 3 many years. He took residence seven NASCAR Cup championships, a feat matched solely by Dale Earnhardt and Jimmie Johnson. His 27-win season in 1967, together with 10 straight victories, turned the stuff of motorsport folklore. And but, past the trophies and titles, it was the person himself who captured the hearts of followers. Together with his wide-brimmed cowboy hat, darkish sun shades, and simple grin, Richard Petty is a larger-than-life determine, approachable and grounded regardless of his towering success. He signed each autograph, shook each hand, and at all times appeared to have time for the individuals who cheered him on from the grandstands. A category act by means of and thru, and he continues to be an unbelievable ambassador for the game.
Morgan Wallen even offers a nod to The King on “I Ain’t Coming Again,” a tune that includes Submit Malone on his new album, I’m The Downside. Within the first line of the refrain, Morgan and Submit sing:
“However the night time I mentioned, ‘I’m leavin’,’ I was Richard Petty
Broke my coronary heart, so I bought even in my ’97 Chevy…”
Now I’m walkin’ on this water blended with Johnnie Walker Black
There’s lots of causes I ain’t Jesus, however the primary one is that I ain’t comin’ again
Oh no, no, I ain’t comin’ again…”
And that Chevy pullover Morgan has on… TOUGH.
Solely in Nashville… certainly.
Take a look at “I Ain’t Coming Again” that includes Submit Malone:
