Not once but twice Foyt has been attacked by killer bees and has lived to talk about it. A.J. is a throw back kind of like Earnhardt Sr was. Men among men. I remember some years back Steven Tyler did the National Anthem at the Indy 500 where A.J. was in attendance. Tyler completely butchered the song I mean it was nasty! After he was done the camera panned to A.J. for just a second but long enough to where you could see him turn to the person next to him and say "What the fuck was that"? Hilarious!

A.J. is a big guy and can be an asshole. At the Pocono 500 in 1972 he picked up a USAC volunteer and threw him to the ground when the person was only doing his job. He got a real chewing out by the officials and almost got thrown out of the race. 41 | |||

Dale Earnhart SR. was still in diapers when Foyt was out winning races.  ___________________________ Avoid buying ChiCom/CCP products whenever possible. | |||

More like a Junior Johnson than Dale Earnhardt Sr. | |||

Only 16 years difference in age. While that used to sound like a lot, now that I'm firmly in my 60's not so much. Collecting dust. | |||

Him and Parnelli Jones. You can add Dan Gurney, Jim Hall (Chaparral Cars) and Mario. Also can't forget the Unser brothers | |||

I like AJ, warts and all, and wish him a speedy recovery. Is Texas full of killer bees? We've got a good selection of badass wasps, hornets and bees in s Indiana but they haven't learned to mass attack for fun as a rule. I've heard of swarms but never known of one first hand. A damned sweat bee causes me to puff up and the last real sting I got I had to get a shot. ________________________ God spelled backwards is dog | |||
