Carl Edwards On One Of The Strangest Autographs He's Ever Signed

Carl Edwards first realized just how devoted some NASCAR fans can be when he encountered a fan named Andy at the track formerly known as Indianapolis Raceway Park.

Here's Edwards' story:

There's a guy named Andy who comes to the ORP race and this guy was super, super-pumped to meet me. He had a Roush Racing tattoo with flames and all this stuff and he said, ‘I want you to sign right there above it and I'm gonna get it tattooed.'

I said, ‘There's no way you're gonna do that.' I thought he was just messing around. He'd been drinking a little bit, so I signed it and the next race we came back and there he is, Andy, yelling at me and showing me his tattoo.

I thought, ‘That's unreal. I can't believe he did that.'

He's like, ‘You better do well. You better run good.' I'm like, ‘Yes, sir. I understand. You have some skin in this.' So that was pretty interesting. When I see Andy I still can't believe he's got my autograph tattooed on his arm.

So is there anything Edwards won't sign?

"Yeah," he said. "They usually come in pairs."
