What the Hell is on Richard’s Head?

[padam]

I guess today is the Daytona 500.?

Glad to see Richard and Kyle look good for their ages.

Daytona 500 also known as "Redneck High Holy Day." Yup, will be celebrating it.

He always wears those hats that look like a big butterfly got splattered on it.

The man has lost credibility.

The man has lost marbles.

Fixed.

 

[padam]

The man has lost credibility.

He’s obviously at the point in his life where maybe he shouldn’t be talking in front of a camera.

He has worn the feather on his hat for a long time, but this one has a bunch of sticks or something coming out of it.

 

[kiwigtx]

Looks like an ostrich is fixing to lay an egg on that hat.

My dad got really unreasonable and delusional in his last years.

If you didn’t know him when he was a few years younger you would not believe the life he had lived and the man he was.

We have a responsibility to protect our elders in that situation, not trot them out to serve our own purposes.

The Petty Family has started a YouTube channel and it's been quite entertaining (and enlightening) to watch
so far. Quite a long family racing linneage there, of course - but I enjoy the garage/wrecking yard stories, too.
I don't feel any particular need in dumping on the guy - he's got plenty to be proud of, least of which is his
family.

He's still the King!

200 wins and some serious bank. I'm a fan!

Oh believe me I’m a fan too.

Just hope he maintains his dignity.

I mean, I picked my dad up at assisted living once and the attendants let him come out with his pants on backwards.
I wouldn’t take him in public like that.

I'd a had me some attendant *** over that one...

Probably raccoon bones.

My wife is a pro at that and it never happened again.

Daytona unveils the first of 28 unique statues of Richard Petty's famed and feathered cowboy hat

 

[padam]

Hat statues? Really?

 

[71dodgechargerrt]

Met him once, what a gentleman. He even signed a couple of cars.

 

[SlingLow]

Hat statues? Really?

Just be glad they're honoring Richard Petty and not John Holmes.
