Tony Stewart’s Superstition Revealed During North Wilkesboro Weekend: “That’s Your Lucky Charm?”

Tony Stewart, a legendary figure in American motorsports, has always been known for his colorful personality and competitive spirit. As one of the most recognized names in NASCAR, Stewart has had an illustrious career, winning two stock car championships and achieving success in various racing divisions. However, there is one aspect of Stewart’s racing persona that has recently come to light–his superstition.

Tony Stewart Reveals Pre-Race Superstition

In a candid moment captured during his YouTube video titled “What a Real Race Weekend Looks Like,” Stewart revealed his superstition regarding a particularly lucky charm associated with Kyle Busch’s Ex-Sponsor, M&M’s.

Seeing a pack of M&M’s, the camera crew asked Stewart, “That’s your lucky charm?” To this, the team owner replied, “Yeah, I am superstitious.”

As the camera person interjected to add, “Seems like all drag racers are [superstitious],” Stewart quickly corrected him, “All racers are, to a certain degree. Just a matter of how bad they are.”

The conversation then shifted to M&M’s, and Stewart shared a fascinating ritual involving the iconic candy.

When the interviews asked, “When do yo take them?” He stated, “Right now, I gotta take them out & show Renee & Bill and Eric – 4 of them, Three browns and One blue.”

This revelation sheds light on Stewart’s belief in the power of these specific M&M’s as a lucky charm. While the exact significance of these M&M’s remains unclear, it is evident that they hold a special place in Stewart’s superstition repertoire.

Kyle Busch’s Long Lost $35 Billion Worth Sponsor

Last year, the racing world was abuzz with the news of the separation between Kyle Busch and Joe Gibbs Racing, which resembled a contentious divorce. The situation further escalated when Busch’s primary sponsor, M&M’s, decided to exit the sport entirely, leaving the accomplished Cup Series champion in a precarious position.

For over 15 years, M&M’s had been synonymous with Busch’s racing career, earning him the nickname “Candyman” due to the distinctive M&M’s-sponsored merchandise and liveries on his car. The partnership between Busch and M&M’s had been a fruitful one, but the end of their association left a void that needed to be filled.

With M&M’s stepping away from NASCAR, the search for a new sponsor became crucial for Busch’s future in the sport. However, despite efforts to secure a new partnership, Busch ultimately had to part ways with Joe Gibbs Racing. This significant turn of events undoubtedly had a profound impact on Busch’s career and highlighted the ever-changing landscape of sponsorship in motorsports.

Stewart’s revelation of his superstition regarding M&M’s as a lucky charm raises an intriguing question – was Busch aware of this superstition during their time together? Did he consider the candy brand as his own lucky charm? The juxtaposition between Stewart’s reliance on the candy and Busch’s lost sponsorship adds an intriguing layer to the story.
