Jim Beam

[Mot51560]

Is Jim Beam the best sponsor in NASCAR ? I don't believe i've ever seen a sponsor stand behind their driver the way they stand behind Robby. What a great sponsor its not all about money.

You know. The stuff taste like paint thinner but they are the best supporter of a race car driver i have ever seen.

I'll have to agree on Jim Beam being a great sponsor for Robby. They are involved in all of his racing efforts too. We will have to see about his CORR program, but they are really involved and have a lot of confidence in Robby, which is awesome!

Now regarding Jim Beam tasting like paint thinner, I believe that is a personal opinion, but I beg to differ. It's actually quite good w/ Dr. Pepper.

I think Jim Beam has been very supportive of RG as a sponser, now if they threw down some coin for two more cars then they would be the best sponser out there.:rolleyes:

I'm still waiting for RG to win so I can break open some 40+ year old never opened, collector's edition JB I have and celebrate.

40 years old? Be careful, that may have gone bad. But I tell you what, just to be nice, you send me that bottle so I can dispose of it safely, and I'll send you a BRAND NEW, FRESH(!!!) bottle of JB. I'd hate to see someone get ill, ya know. ;)

I don't know, think about how much $$$ Napa has spent on such a crappy driver and so many commercials all these years... LOL!

[bajafox]

Did I miss something, I thought with this much push by Jim Beam they'd at least be the primary sponsor

It a great company all around. The head honcho was a guest on The Tom Lyekus awhile back. Seemed really sincere and dedicated to doing straight business running a company based on moral principles.

The bottles are worth much more than the contents. I'll make you a deal, When RG wins his next race, I'll take a shot, if I don't go blind or vomit uncontrollably, you can send me an empty bottle and I'll fill it up and return it.

i would'nt open them. specially if you don't like it. once they're open, and the whiskeys gone, they're just empty bottles you end up throwing in the attic. worth nothing. keep em' full and who knows, some guy missing one of your jugs to complete a collection might offer you a ton for it...... ah, screw it. go ahead and lay waste to it.gas on.

[PrimoRacingEngines]

I say pound them all right now!

[DEZERTSUB]

DSR, you considered Ebay??? Like Randy said, some collector might offer you a considerable amount...

wait, would that be illegal?? sell booze on Ebay???:confused:

Too much sentimental value in the bottles to sell them. One of these days I'll get around to putting a bar in the house and I'll build a display case for them. In the meantime, I have to figure out what to do with the five gallons of bourbon. This thread did tempt me to open one of the bottles and take a sip. It tastes the same as a fresh bottle of JB.

It is illegal to sell a bottle or decanter full of alcohol.
