I went to 'Stocks For Tots' last Christmas in Mooresville, N.C., Juniors hometown. His fans were waiting at 4 AM for the 300 armbands to be handed out to meet Junior and some other drivers....Denny Hamlin, Shane Huffman , also Booty Barker etc.We almost froze to death, someone finally made a fire to warm us up. The event didn't happen until that night.
We were in line at night about 3 hours, in the cold, waiting to meet Junior. 300 happy fans. We were number 142 in line.
We met him, got his autograph, talked a bit , all was well. Denny was awesome.....met Bobby Allison, Ned Jarrett...it was awesome. The ppl behind us couldn't wait to meet Junior...........he got up and LEFT at number 146~~~he just didn't want to sign anymore. That's it. Who cared about the fans who had waited hours in the early morning to get the armbands that PROMISED a meeting with Dale Jr......or the same fans that waited over three hrs at night, standing in the freezing cold? He doesn't care about his fans.
