One of Dale Jr.’s superstitions is incomplete chores. Junior spoke about how if he leaves a chore incomplete, it haunts him for the rest of the day. He said, “Say you are doing something around the house and you’ll cut a corner or do something lazy in that process, and you’ll mind will say. You better go back and do that the right way, or you put that where it belongs.” To explain his belief better, he gave an example of a towel.

According to him, if he just leaves the towel lying on the table, his mind will constantly remind him to go back and fold it. His wife was quick to reply that what he did at home was contradictory to his belief. She said, “That’s interesting to know considering you leave the pretzels out on the counter.” 

Dale Jr. had his justifications ready for the pretzel story. According to him, he had the thought of keeping them out, constantly in the back of his mind. While Amy Earnhardt was quick to put an end to this as she said, “He just likes my intention. So it doesn’t matter if it’s positive or negative; we’re just gonna do things like that.” 

If you are surprised with the incomplete chores story. The next one that Amy Earnhardt shares is even more hilarious.

In another weird candy-hiding story, she shared how he was obsessed with the candy fireballs and would put them inside the sofa. Sharing this story; Amy said, “He used to eat fireballs. This is before the kids but he used to sit on the couch after hours and just suck on fireballs.
