No sport offers up a more bewildering array of souvenir crap memorabilia than NASCAR, and They Make It digs deep into the corners of the Internet to bring all that strangeness to light. Today: one for the kids!
The item: Fisher-Price Little People NASCAR playset, $38.95 from (where else?) Wal-Mart
The deal: Aw, this is precious! A playset for the kids! Teach them all about NASCAR on a track that is the exact same size as Bristol! (Though with a far-superior figure-8 format.) With this playset, little ones can learn how to put each other into the wall, cut each other's tires, throw helmets, roll through pit stops, bump-draft and so many other necessary aspects of NASCAR life! Set them up with some overgrilled meat and warm drinks and it'll be just like they're in the infield themselves! Just make sure they don't drive their cars while hopped up on cough syrup -- nobody wants that!
The hat tip: Gator, who's found way too many of these things. Catch up with him, won't you? Email your NASCAR souvenir/commemorative craziness to jay.busbee@yahoo.com. Go!
