Fans Go Insane Over Resurfaced “Hold My Watch” Fiasco as Richard Childress Gets Real on $150,000 Setback From Kyle Busch
NASCAR
Kyle Busch recently had a victory at the World Wide Technology Raceway, which was his 3rd Cup Series win of the season for Richard Childress Racing.
Notably, Richard Childress had one infamous incident involving Busch back in 2011. Recently, he was asked about that altercation, and he talked about putting the past behind him.
The confrontation between Childress and Busch in 2011
During the NASCAR Truck Series in Kansas, a frustrated Busch tapped Joey Coulter’s truck on the cool-down lap. Childress did not like what he saw from Busch, as he removed his watch and gave his grandson, saying, “Hold my watch.” Then, he punched Busch and put him in a headlock as well. As a result, he received a $150,000 fine.

Childress talked about his confrontation with Busch
After Busch won the Cup Series race at Gateway, Childress was asked about his confrontation with Busch in 2011. He said, “We put that totally behind us; we talked about it, and it was one of the first things we talked about, and the rest is history. We’ve both grown a lot now. I’ve grown older, but I’ve grown up too.”
Fans react to the infamous 2011 incident after Busch’s win
Many fans celebrated the anniversary of the 2011 incident, as one person said, “Of course Kyle wins on the anniversary of the scuffle with Richard Childress. Coming full circle.” One more fan said, “If you went back in time and told somebody that 12 years later Kyle Busch would win driving for RCR, they would probably look at you crazy.”
