NASCAR insider sticks to a 4-year-old promise made to his mother

Being in the sports world, attending parties here and there, and indulging in a drink or two is quite a common feat. However, enjoying a casual drink can transform into a habit pretty soon and in no time, it might be an addiction. To ensure he did not walk on the same path, Dustin Albino made a promise to his beloved mother. 

Taking to his social media account, Albino tweeted, “Four years without any thought of taking a sip of alcohol. Feel great. Went dry in support of my Momma. Miss you every day.💔”.
