Why do you like Kasey Kahne?
This is one of the most popular questions I am asked. I guess it all comes down to the year of 2006. It was my first time going to a race track. My dad said that I was going to like Kasey Kahne & I looked at him like he was crazy. At the time I didn't have a favorite driver. I just went with Tony Stewart because his car was #20 & that was my basketball number. Long story short we headed to pit road. I met tons of drivers & Kasey was one of them. I just thought he was cute at the time. Eventually I looked him up & he seemed like a good pick so I went with him. After a few wins I figured I couldn't go wrong with supporting him. 4 years later & I'm in way over my head.
I met Kasey for the 2nd time June 2008. The first time I didn't really care that he talked to me or anything because many drivers were.The 2nd time I screamed when he got pole then took off running to where my brother was standing on pit road to get my car signed. After that we saw Kasey was sticking around for autographs & stuff so I took a spot where it was "illegal" to stand. I got told to move I don't know how many times & I kept saying "after I meet Kasey!" It took a bit before he got to where I was standing & I got another autograph before I asked for a picture with him. That's where you get the cherished picture of us. Afterwards I called almost everyone I knew & I was crying because I met him! I know, it's so stupid but he's awesome. He does so much for his fans & it's tough not to like him. Trust me, I tried it & it didn't last long!
Now what can I say other than Kasey's my #1 driver?!?! Sure I do support Joey but Kasey came first. He's the one who got me addicted to racing. Many fans only like him because he's hot. No doubt that's one of my reasons but he's an amazing driver. Who wouldn't want him on their team?! I will stick by him through thick & thin. After all I own more Kasey items than a normal person should. Not to mention I have a Kasey liscense plate on my car. In the end, I will support him 100% in whatever he does.
