Sponsorship Overload

This is why some have trouble taking auto racing seriously. Casey Mears won the pole for the NASCAR Busch Series SpongeBob SquarePants Movie 300. I did not make that up. It's the name of the race. Really. The NASCAR Busch Series SpongeBob SquarePants Movie 300. I know you still don't believe me. Click here for confirmation.

I wouldn't even want to win the race with that ridiculous a name. I pity the poor guy that does. The stinking name of the race is a paragraph long. By the time a sportswriter gets done typing it, there won't be enough space left to mention who won. Besides, I shudder to think of the trophy featuring good ol' SpongeBob pounding down a Busch beer.
