1. The cars would at least be

3. True enough
I have to get my meds refilled there only
because it's the only place to park a big rig.

Otherwise, like Big Eddie, I don't darken their
doors.

4. They stay
neutral with all the teams, so they don't offend fans of any drivers so they continue to shop there. I have heard of nascar fans that will boycott sponsors of drivers they don't like, so there's no way wal-mart would go for that.

Off topic, I applied for a seasonal job with lowes hardware a couple years back, they ask me who my favorite nascar driver is I say Tony Stewart (local favorite) and the guy interviewing me goes nuts about. Tony drives for the rival Home Depot, I guess their driver (Jimmy Johnson?) is a big rival to him and this guy is about having a heart attack saying that if I want to work for Lowes I must hate Tony Stewart. I reply your nuts and I'm going to your store manager about this, guess what store manager was even more nuts. I call them a bunch of rednecks and tell them not only would I never work for them, I would never shop at a lowes again.

7. I know whereof you speak
I'm from Alabama, after all.

BTW, #20 fucking RULES, although he, uh, ran
out of gas today-literally.
