OK, it’s a fact of life in NASCAR that everything that moves (and most things that don’t) have some kind of sponsorship connected. It was no more than expected Thursday that the first words out of Dale Jarrett’s mouth when he found out he qualified for the Daytona 500 after the second Gatorade Duel was a nod to UPS. In fact, he went so far as to say that if UPS had insisted, he probably would have retired before this season, rather than waiting for the first five races.

Anyway, it’s just an accepted part of the culture, and nobody seems to mind too much.
It’s cool to see a driver like Tony Stewart hawking for a hardware store (if you don’t know which one, you haven’t been paying attention) and what would the history of the sport be without the legendary connection between Richard Petty and STP?

But there has to be a limit.
Doesn’t there?
Apparently not.
Here at Daytona International Speedway, even the garbage cans scattered around the infield are fair game. As you can see here: the official garbage can of mayonnaise, the official garbage can of spaghetti sauce and the official garbage can of fire ant killer.
