  • I think for me in this experience it was surprising that 200+k ppl in a crowd could in unison show respect for one another and participate. It was very emotional during that taping and even YEARS later still watching this.
  • It's been 20 years and it still hurts and he is still so missed and this is so wonderful to see people hold up three fingers to honor Dale Earnhardt I hope that they continue to do this number three is so badly missed that black car with the number three on it is so missed it breaks my heart to think about it and it was 20 years ago and I still wonder who's cutting onions in my house right now am I crying or is that the onions or is that you God bless

    Why not have a 28th lap for Davey Allison?How about run the 7th lap in reverse for Kulwicki? If the guy is so revered, why is someone driving car #3 today?
