Saturday morning we had the driver of the Best Buy #66, Jeff Green at our store - I thought I'd post a few pics for ya...

Here's a couple of me:

I went to the race as well - got wet - race cancelled, and I honestly didn't feel like farting w/ all that traffic for 2 days straight...lmao - so, I gave my tickets to my cousin and he went instead.

We sold him a PC too - you can see the Gateway monitor box sitting at the horseshoe in one of the shots - really nice guy...

I worked all four days at the track - the rain was rediculous!

Don't look so happy next time, Jayson. Looks like someone licked all the red off your candy. lol :D

Dragon, I thought Tony was kewl until this past weekend when I was up close with these guys for 3 days - now, I was a die hard Jr. fan ... I'm changing that after this weekend. Jeff Green was kewl, as were the majority of the other drivers - Jr and Tony were ... for the lack of a better word, d!cks. I refuse to make a big deal for either of them.

I'm going with JB.

You guys sold him a computer...did he get an employee discount?! hehe...

The closest I've ever some to someone famous was yelling at John Goodman in New Orleans.

Well the expression on my face is because the guy that HAD be taking pictures went to the bathroom, and the person now w/ the camera had NO clue on how to use a digital slr, so she had tried like five times to take my picture before she realized the camera wasn't on - so that was my getting aggravated w/ a moron face...lmao.

I'm kinda surprized about Jr. being a d!ck - he came in our store last yet (no event, just came in shopping - bought a camera), and was very friendly, signed autographs for employee's and fans. I didn't really interact w/ him, but he wasn't making a big deal over himself.

2 years ago, Rusty Wallace came in and was a royal d!ck to everyone - wanted to be treated like the president or something...even swore at a cashier.

As far as Jeff Green goes, he couldn't have been nicer - in fact myself and our PC sup spent more time w/ him than anyone, because we had in to ourselves in computers for about 25 mintues selling the computer.

His publicist that was there said we were the nicest people at a store he had met - they had done 5 of these so far at stores near tracks and they had just did one in Johnson City Tn the weekend of the Bristol race, and fans of other drivers actually boo'ed Jeff when he walked in. To me that is just sick - I couldn't do that to someone.
