[@zander9774]

​@@hunterpro_1 why are you convinced NASCAR has it out for him and it wasn't just Brandon screwing himself over? If you follow the events that happened which @EllyProdcutions49 didn't cover very well it's more Brandon shooting himself in the foot. In November that year after Dibenedetto tried a pandering stunt NASCAR told everyone clearly nothing LGB/FJB related would be allowed in the sport. In December Brandon gave a widely covered interview about struggling to find sponsors and wanted to make LGB his own thing. The next week LGB coin was announced as sponsor. It gave the perception he did the interview to soften public opinion of him using it. Then we find out his sponsors didn't leave him, he quit answering their calls trying to renew for the next year. Then theres the paint scheme vs. sponsor approval from NASCAR drama. The week of Christmas Brandon's team submitted the paint scheme for eye test approval which it cleared. That process is seperate from actual sponsor approval teams go through. Brandon's team though took a paint scheme approval and decided that was good enough to announce their new sponsor. Of course NASCAR came out and said that's not allowed with the LGB coin owner trying to claim paint scheme approval meant NASCAR already cleared them. They were informed that not how it works but Brandon can work with his sponsor all he wants outside track property. It sucks something outside his control took off but the way he handled it trying to garner sympathy while using the phrase wasn't smart.

There are dozens of people to blame here. The reporter who *misheard* the audience, the audience making a political chant at a sporting event while the event's winner was celebrating, the mainstream media who sensationalized this story, the vendors who sold merchandise to make easy cash off of the controversy yet never once approached the victim of the controversy to support him, the sponsor companies who didn't want to get swept up into the controversy.... take your pick. the point is, Brandon's career was ended because of circumstances entirely beyond his control, and it's not fair given how much the guy obviously cared about racing. you can blame whoever the hell you want, but it's not gonna bring Brandon back. You're just pointing fingers to find easy explanations and closure for a tremendously complex, confusing and chaotic situation, and it don't help anybody.

[@brendanschuett]

The phrase was already ruining his career. The sponsors had already left. In order to be able to race, he needed a sponsor, and LGB Coin was pretty much the only one willing. So, while yes, he could have said no to the sponsorship, it likely would've been the end of his career. Which is exactly what happened in actuality, as he didn't end up getting this sponsor. Had nascar approved the sponsorship, the story would be completely different, and we could be saying that the LGB chant helped his career by giving him a full season sponsor. But even then, the sponsor was likely a scam that would leave after a few races. So it was a blunder either way.

That's the sad way memes work. A lot of people get made fun of for something out of their control normally.

[@camdog2520]

It’s sad but it’s kinda of his fault he said have never left his sponsors and should have never made let’s go Brandon has his sponsor

[@beltdrivetypea6534]

Trump would have probably sponsored him

[@NASCARFAN93100]

It's a shame how all of this killed Brandon Brown's career

[@wordlesslfiddling]

The thing that pisses me off the most absurd all this is that so many of these guys are the ines that say you need to support smal or local businesses owners While screwing a small businesses owner

[@logankerr2826]

Great vid but Elly it’s NUGGS IN 5 season We Lit here in denver!

[@BFLOPlanesandTrains]

I've seen a train locomotive labeled "Spirit of Brandon" which might relate to Let's go Brandon.

[@tylerpieper8053]

It’s so interesting, I’ve been binging a bunch of videos and you and others often talk about the fan base not connecting with drivers because they were born into racing and not a working man. Brandon was a working man and the last of the “garage built” generation yet nobody can look past politics to see it.

[@LAUNCH_REBEL]

The GBA Cars music makes the video

[@yokaidigital3033]

I believe the network were trying to keep their show PG by not aknowledging the language used. Of course we all seen how some turned it into a political statement. What’s really a shame is sports should be a release from our daily life and some of the fans had to bring politics to the race.

[@mapleboy0001]

in my opinion the point of no return came a day after the race when a political influencer (who i won't name here) picked up the phrase and started aggressively pushing it for some reason

[@historybuff1483]

Was it Nick Adams or Tucker Carlson?

[@chardab8824]

King George Speedway mentioned immediate top ten video of all time

[@JunohNebula]

As if I needed another reason to dislike that chant. Brandon Brown didn't deserve the hand he was dealt, he seems like a genuinely good person who's just trying to live his racing dreams. I hope he can find some way to return.

[@sammy13ificationable]

"The days of the bootlegger are long over" is a statement that realistically cant be any more false, tbf. I know about 6 guys in a little nook in a place called Snake Hollow that would beg to differ, and even more of my neighbors

[@froggodoggo79]

What I don't understand is, why were all the fans chanting something political after a victory that had NOTHING to do with politics? Brandon Brown deserved better.

[@sntslilhlpr6601]

Because they're in a cult.

[@UmbraBree]

Nascar fans are mostly right wing. And have recently been starting to use left wing tactics since the left wing tactics have been effective

[@UmbraBree]

Brandon got caught in the middle of two opposing forces basically. The general public vs the media

[@MooncricketsInc]

His name was Brandon, so that's why, probably? If trump can be given different nicknames, why can't biden?

[@crapmalls]

How did he not become the richest driver? Every texas plumber would have loved to have their sticker on the car for a small fee

[@ppaauull3854]

if he didnt lean into it the sponsers would hAve came back. it was his fault.

[@IBangedUrMom69420]

Nope. Didn’t happen.

[@cito1101]

If it wasn't for those clowns getting political, Brandon Brown's career never would've been on the downward spiral

[@DuddleBug5]

FR

[@greebmcsnuffles9933]

Better then burning down city's because a person overdosed

[@Landmasters]

@@greebmcsnuffles9933 Weak shit Though the fans have nothing to do with it. NBC tried to pretend viewers were stupid/deaf and instead of ignoring the chant/apologizing for the language they created that chant that Brandon could never escape.

[@BelowTheYellowLine]

​@@greebmcsnuffles9933 or breaking into the Capital they claim to respect and threatening to hang somebody if their whiny President didn't get "reinstated".

[@zuwarkgaming]

⁠@@greebmcsnuffles9933 What cities were burned down? I'd love to know that information, because as far as I'm aware....no such "burning cities" ever happened. Small fires don't count as burning a city to the ground.

[@stewpuddy4161]

I felt terrible for him. But when he put that stupid phony bit coin thing on the car, he went all in, and it all fell apart.

[@kaihohman588]

Excellent video as usual brother

[@lospereye]

He deserves better. Screw the interviewer for ruining his chance

[@itbgmultimediastudios1815]

Man that sucks. Great video, I feel so deeply for him. Ugh
