A recent blog by NBA Outlaw caught my attention. Not only well written but also interesting questions. Now all the other excellent FoxBloggers answered his questions, so i didn't feel i needed to post this as a comment.
There has been a big discussion about about how Jr sells more "stuff" but Kyle is a better driver. i am not here to debate that. i personally am more of a Kyle fan than a Jr one.
My question is Do you think the type of sponsor affects merchandise sales? Jr has cooler sponsors than Kyle. Seriously, Mountain Dew, Amp and formerly Bud, are definetly more hip that M & M's, Snickers, Pedigree and Interstate.
Being a Rusty Wallace fan, i was ok wearing all the Miller Lite stuff, even though i don't drink beer. Now i am conflicted. Can i buy a Jr hat (i love mountain dew) but i don't want people to think i am a Jr fan.
I am sure the type of sponsor has a great deal to do with sales. Only the most die-hard Mark Martin fan wore Viagra gear, and i have seen people wearing Bud and Amp gear that i know couldn't pick Jr out of a line-up.
I really like Kyle Busch, but until i see a M & M racing hat that isn't violently yellow, i will stick with the RedBull gear. I am a fan of both drivers and the hats are cool.
What say you Nascar Bloggers, any gear you wouldn't wear even though your a fan of the driver?
