Future NASCAR Hall of Famer, Tony Stewart wasn’t having the greatest night when he participated in a sprint car race in Jackson, Minnesota the other night. Apparently, Stewart’s engine died just one lap into the race.
Stewart still met with fans after the race to sign some autographs before someone in the crowd started heckling him. After flippin’ each other the bird, Tony Stewart charged the fan and eventually glanced a left hook off the back of the fan’s head. No charges have been filed and the situation was “handled internally by race track officials.”
A fan uploaded a video of the incident on Twitter. (Warning: LANGUAGE)
Looks like ol’ Smoke @TonyStewart had some fun at the dirt track tonight! Credit to Jeff Riddle for this awesome video. #NASCAR pic.twitter.com/Tt6wpBP5ew
