NASCAR walks back approval of Brandon Brown's 'Let's go Brandon' coin sponsorship
[THEPOSTMILLENNIAL] Brandon Brown, the unintentional namesake of popular anti-Biden chant "Let's Go Brandon" will not be able to sport a sponsorship from LGBcoin afterall.
According to Fox News, the partnership with the cryptocurrency has been pulled back from the announced 33 races that Brown was intended to display the sponsorship.
Fox Business reports that Brown's spokesperson Maxwell Marcucci said that NASCAR "pulled back its approval of the sponsorship deal on Dec. 30, after the partnership with LGBcoin was announced."
"After the announcement went live on Thursday morning, NASCAR acknowledged to us late that afternoon that we had received approval but that they now needed to discuss this at a higher level," Marcucci said.
A NASCAR spokesperson went so far as to say that the driver jumped the gun by announcing the partnership between himself and the meme coin. This, however, has been disputed by Marcucci.
