Confessions of a NASCAR Fan

NASCAR is one of the most popular spectator sports in the country, but the fandom is far from as mainstream. How did I -- a person who watches no other sport -- become a die-hard NASCAR fan? What brings hundreds of thousands of dedicated fans to racetracks around the country year-in and year-out?

About Eric Wilson:

Professionally, I’m a digital political consultant, working at Engage, living and breathing Capitol Hill. Originally from the thriving metropolis of Wichita Falls, TX, when I’m not keeping tabs on the latest news about politics, tech, and NASCAR, I enjoy hanging out at the Union Pub and watching movies.
