Okay. Who loves embarrassing nicknames? Especially the ones that you got in your childhood. But here is how the famous NASCAR drivers responded when they were asked to reveal their childhood nicknames.

During a fun conversation with NBC Sports, NASCAR drivers answered one of the most embarrassing questions. “What was your childhood nickname?” The first driver to reveal their secret was none other than Austin Dillon. While explaining how he got his nickname, Dillon said; “My AAU Basketball coach called me cookie dough one time because I liked cookie dough and I was a little pudgy.” 

Furthermore, an embarrassed Hailie Deegan couldn’t believe she was going to share this. She said; “I’ve been trying to bury it, like deeply bury it. It’s dirt princess. Not a fan. Not a fan at all.” Moreover, a straight-faced Tyler Reddick said; “T-Dawg. Mainly from Kyle Larson. And I really don’t need it. Or want it to come back.”

Apart from this, a proud Brad Keselowski answered; “BK the Whopper.” But Bubba Wallace just nodded his head and said; “Still my nickname, Bubba.” Because of course, that is his one and only one since forever!”

Other obvious nicknames were that of Michael McDowell and Harrison Burt’s. When asked about it, McDowell simply said “McD” while Burt replied “Harry. My mom hated it but that’s what they call me.”

Well, moving on, a confused Chris Buescher shared his surprising nickname. He said; “Junior. But I am not a Junior so, I have no clue how that ended up being it.” Furthermore, Justin Allgaier shared; “I was known as Little Gator because… my dad’s gator. Still known as Little Gator.”
