NASCAR Xfinity Series Driver Brandon Brown, 2022

01

Artifact Overview

Brandon Brown earned his first NASCAR win, in the Xfinity Series, at Talladega Superspeedway on October 2, 2021. Brown's victory was overshadowed by a vulgar chant from the crowd, disapproving of President Joe Biden but misheard as "Let's Go Brandon." That misunderstood chant became a slogan for Biden's critics, despite Brown's personal desire to stay out of politics to avoid losing sponsors or fans.
