About The Time A Fan Grabbed NASCAR Driver Kasey Kahne’s Butt

There are some off-the-wall questions every year at NASCAR Media Day, and Kasey Kahne was asked one on Thursday.

↵A reporter asked Kahne about the wildest encounter he’d ever had with a fan. Kahne smiled and told the following story:

↵“I won once in Vegas, the Nationwide race and I was walking to the media center and this girl grabbed my butt. Just out of nowhere. And I don’t feel that hardly ever, you know?

↵“So I turn around and this girl was just smiling. I was like, ‘Wow. That was alright!’”

↵So what did the girl say?

↵“She didn’t say anything. I just turned around, and she was standing there smiling at me and I was like, ‘Alright, cool.’ I just went to the media center. ”

↵The Budweiser-sponsored Kahne knows he’s adored by female fans, which is just fine by him.

↵“They drink beer, too, so that’s good,” he said. “...It would suck if it was just all guys.”
