After the race in Phenoix where Jeff Gordon tied Dale Earnhardt's 76 wins, the fans freaked out throwing beer bottles and such at the 24 car as Jeff made a lap flying the number 3 flag out the window to honor Dale.
WOW!!!!! I see this as a bad mark on the fans of NASCAR and the late Dale Earnhardt. Why in the world would anyone want to bash a guy to paying tribute to one of the sport's greatest? I can't figure it out.
Jr can't seen to figure it out either.
Quote from article. "They were business partners, in properties and in companies. They worked together," Little E said of his father and Gordon."
