Owens, Ferguson discuss importance of merchandise sales

[zach51]

Sports Image was the licensing company that Dale Sr was a part of starting up. It ended up being sold to somebody, Action maybe? That was back when die-cast was a lot more popular and affordable. I like Nascar but some of their shirt designs are just too generic and corny, I haven't seen one in years that I would be caught dead wearing. Dirt, different story. I'd buy a Larson dirt shirt but not his nascar stuff (expect maybe the Eldora dirt truck shirt....which would be dirt AND nascar). I prefer getting event shirts/hoodies/etc rather that individual drivers for the most part. And I always like going over to the big speedway during world finals to see what nice Speedway Club or Charlotte Speedway shirts they have on clearance, I can usually find one I like. (they have to be on clearance because I ain't paying $70 for a polo)

Every time I'm out, I see vendors of everything from food to clothing and it makes me figure profitability. There is gold in them thar hills. There is more profit in the shirts sold out of the race hauler.

You sometimes don't see the simple truth. One of my Nephews retired in his 50s selling onion rings at fairs, festivals and races. Before that he opened 5 star restaurants for peanuts.

They are nice shirts but still haha. A bloomer polo (if any of his fans wore collars), would probably be $85.
