Bubba Wallace was greeted with loud booing from those in attendance at NASCAR’s Cup Series All-Star Race at Bristol, Tennessee this week.
Things didn’t improve for Wallace once the race began either. The sport’s lone full-time black driver crashed into a wall, after which the crowd cheered. Moreover, there were several confederate flags visible in and around the raceway. Flying in defiance of Wallace’s and NASCAR’s demand that the flags be removed from all official events.
Here’s how it sounded when Wallace was introduced.

As the AP’s Jenna Fryer reports:
Bubba Wallace was also booed when he was introduced, and many cheered when he crashed. NASCAR still has a lot of work to do to back up its position. The group Justice 4 Diversity held signs along Speedway Blvd. after the race.

Despite the booing at hearing Wallace’s name and the cheering upon watching his crash, the booing from the fans likely had less to do with the driver’s stances on social issues and more to do with his harsh characterization of NASCAR fans who were dubious, (correctly, as it turns out) of Wallace’s contention that someone had placed a noose in his garage with racial intent.
In June, an FBI investigation concluded that no hate crime had occurred because the “noose” in Wallace’s garage was in fact a garage pull handle that had been in place long before anyone could have known Wallace would use that garage. In response to claims from some fans that the noose incident had been staged, Wallace accused some NASCAR fans of being “simple minded,” not taking the time to “educate” themselves, and being quick to “jump to a conclusion.”
He also claimed that those fans view their job as being “always to deliver hate.”
Wallace was ripped on social media for the remarks and those remarks probably inspired much of the cheering and booing the driver received at Bristol this week.
In a more recent interview with Desus & Mero talk show on Showtime, Wallace defended NASCAR fans against the stereotype that they are all racists.

Lol, so it sounds like he was accusing NASCAR fans of doing exactly what he did. He “simple mindedly” did not take the time to “educate” himself about the door handle and was quick to “jump to a conclusion”. Then took it a step further and publicly made accusations before educating himself on the facts.
 
" . . . loud booing from those in attendance . . . "

Anybody got any information on the number of "those in attendance"?

Are we talking between 5 and 20 . . . or were there at least 40?

I can count about 5 in the out of focus background. If we count the photographer, that could put the count all the way up to 6.

I think that the local news repoted that there were around 25K in attendance. There's seating for around 150K + at the Bristol round track.

Wow, I remember when you couldnt drive I 81 after a race because of the traffic leaving the s track.

Fuck Nascar and fuck Bubba
 
There were only 85K seats the last time I went to the Bristol race. I parked about three miles from the track and the woman was like WTF are you doing? I told her that when everyone is sitting in their car for hours we will be home. After the race we walked past three miles of parking lot and drove away. The next year they added another 25K seats and ticket prices went through the roof and I will never go back.

Wait for the first NFL game. An entire entity disrespecting the national anthem, the flag and claiming that the white people that are paying them millions of dollars for playing a game are racists.
The stands will be full of the adoring idiots. Well at least it'll be full to the limit allowed by the dictator in charge.

It bugs me that there is a crowd. Professional sports, fuck them, stay home or go fishing.
 
Racism cried wolf...the peeps stop caring. The left has effectively nullified racism. So when something that is really racism actually does occur, the peeps will say meh. Bottom line, the Left and their SJW's have De-legitimized their own cause.


I stopped by the supermarket this morning to pick up some detergent... On the checkout line, I remarked loudly to the cashier... "these fluorescent lights should be replaced. They are bathing the store in WHITE light... Isn't that a blatant expressing of white supremacy? There are people of all races here and they have to step under it's white privilege as they are trying to get bread and milk... I am offended... Can I speak to the manager please???"

Laughter. Laughter abound... There was a lot of customers and others just trying to escape the heat outside, and they were cracking the fuck up... Yep... Fewer and fewer people are giving a shit anymore. Let's help derail their shit even faster by trolling the ever loving fuck out of them, wherever, whenever we have the chance...
 
NASCAR needs to change how it does the races. Start of the race all drivers must complete 3 Laps on a self powered tricycle.

There needs to be scheduled fights every 20 laps. The loser of said fights gets a wild card and has the right to call it at any time during the race for a rematch of said fight.

If you leave the race for more than three laps, you must turn around and drive back the other way for one lap.

All teams must sponsor an old woman Asian driver. Set driver is always in pole position at the start of the race

There, now NASCAR it could be fun

Had to blow the horn at some dumb bitch the other day. She was so confused she just stopped in the middle of the lane, so I tapped the horn a couple times. Bitch looks at me in the side mirror and I thought she must be pretty pissed with those squinted eyes. Then I realized she was asain and everything made sense.

Watch out for the ones on freeway that back up in the slow lane because they missed their exit. I used to work in Vancouver, BC. Common occurrence up there.
 
Ban all sports ! As a RACIST, I have become bored with them performing for me.


The majority of sports are racist, take the NFL for example, what is the ratio of black to white players?
If colleges and corporations have quota of non-whites that must be met, professional sports should have a quote of whites that must be met. You know, so EVERYONE is treated EQUAL like the saying I keep hearing goes.
 
I was just happy to see the fans wake up and put him in her place loved the confederate flags flown by the people who matter the fans . I could see the melting of snowflakes tears falling like rain . wonder how much blood money NASCAR will have to pay out for that . who needs the liar anyway . i would agree ban all sports since they paid money to the blm so they could destroy cities , kill women and childrenand cops both black and white .

The commies are winning on two levels.
1: infiltration of the institutions in this country. Re: boy scouts, NFL, NBA, NASCAR, MLB to a degree, pretty much the things that real Americans used to support.

2: making it possible that the fans are willing to cut the dollars for these institutions, thereby stepping on the financial air hose.

So, either way they win.

Anybody still think voting will fix this?

I hope not.
