There’s a thin line between being a fan and being a fanatic, especially when it comes to sports because in that case, the line becomes even thinner. So it’s no wonder that a sport as thrilling and deeply embedded with personalities and high stakes such as NASCAR gets a lot of fanatics.

But then again, where do you draw the line?

Is it over the one of the law or before it?

This question is important because an unidentified man in Greenville recently dealt the city a blow worth $1,000 in city repairs. The man reportedly spray-painted the message, “NASCAR on USA” on a wall.

The suspect was caught in the act on a video camera, and his whereabouts are currently unknown.

Now, as serious as his actions are, it didn’t stop the fans from bringing some wit and sarcastic messages to the table in their reactions to this incident.

One of them wrote, “Police: ‘arrest him!’ USA Network: hire him'”, while another wrote, “USA Press release: we cannot condone the defacing of public property, USA privately: why didn’t we think of this!?”

“It’s NASCAR on NBC now buddy,” read one reaction while another went like, “Gotta get those ratings up somehow.”

While one fan had this to suggest, “Free this man!!! (once he gets arrested)”, with another looking at it from another perspective, “NASCAR’s new marking executive.”

NASCAR legend on drivers oversharing their thoughts publically

Dale Earnhardt Jr, the NASCAR Hall of Famer, recently addressed the current safety issues in the sport and the fuming drivers with their media outbursts as of late.

“Drivers are almost in a panic for NASCAR to help them. They’re going to the media because the media is kind of the last resort to get something done, to get somebody’s attention,” he said.

“When a driver feels like he is out of options, that he’s not being heard or really has to have something done immediately, really needs to get his message across quickly, urgently, they go to the media and they over speak.”

Junior described that when drivers want to be heard, they tend to say more than what they should say.

“When you want to be heard, when you want somebody to understand this is something important to you, when you’re a driver, you go to the media, you overspeak. You pour it on thick,” he explained.

“Because that’s your only shot.”
