Race: Cup Race, Richmond
Winner: Dale Earnhardt Jr.

Pre-victory Lane Celebration: Outdid Kevin Harvick on the smoke job.

Victory Lane Celebration: The Bud team knows how to party and promptly showered Jr. will all the Bud they could bring to victory lane.

Confetti/ Pyro: None, the beer was enough.
Persons Thanked: DEI, all the guys back home that are not here. Crew put together a great car. The guys at the shop made this one easy.
Sponsors Mentioned: None
Headgear/ Sunglasses Worn: Bud hat
Beverage Consumed: He had a Bud in his hand but didn’t consume it on camera.
Girlfriend/ Wife Present: No
Network/ Talent Conducting Interview: Steve Byrnes who asked for Jr’s towel to dry off the Bud shower at the end of the interview.

Additional Notes: Jr. must have thought that Crown Royal was out to get them. The Crown Royal folks aggressively pushed their way into the background waving their bottles around. If you’re going to force your product onto TV, get it right.

This moron here was forceful with the bottle to get on TV but was not smart enough to keep his fingers from covering up the product’s name.

The team knew where their loyalties were at, consuming Bud in the background in a calm and happy manner.

While the Crown Royal folks appeared threatening forcing their bottles into the picture, the two ladies they hired were easy on the eyes. Plus they were smart enough to not block the name of the product.
