Although NASCAR is serious business, it isn’t all work and no play for the drivers. Recently, many of the Toyota-affiliated drivers took part in a small game. In this game, they had to name as many Taylor Swift songs as possible, and they had a great time. Among the participants were, Denny Hamlin, Kyle Busch, Bubba Wallace, and many more.
Hamlin confessed that he could not name any songs, but he could sing them. Meanwhile, Wallace mused, “What’s the one where she’s in the bedroom, at a window looking at a guy”. There were plenty of other guesses, and some drivers even guessed the wrong songs. Kyle Busch even managed to guess one of her popular ones, ‘Shake It Off’.
