Headline: Kasey Kahne Cuffed. WTF?
By now I'm sure you've seen it. Kasey and a Homestead-Miami security guard had a "coming together" after Cup practice on Saturday. The details are under investigation by Homestead detectives. The meat of the story follows:
"Police were called and Kahne spent several minutes in handcuffs before being released. The security guard was checked and released at the infield medical center...
I wonder. Could this be the beginning of the transformation of Klean Kut Kasey Kahne into....BUD MAN?
Think about it. This is Kasey's last race before taking the reins of the Clydesdale team. Might be time to roughen up the old image. With two-plus months before Speedweeks begin, he even has time to sprout some kind of scruffy, half-beard - just like Dale Junior.
I want to know, Who out there doesn't know who Kasey Kahne is? That security guard should be fired, how stupid. There stands Kasey, In his Uniform,with his name, Allstate and NASCAR NEXTEL Cup series stitched into it,And the guard doesn't know who he is, and won't let him pass? What a Moron!
And of course the mass media is running with it like a rabid dog. And they bumped into each other, it's not like Kasey Punched the guard. And then to place him in Handcuffs? The whole incident was nothing, and the police over reacted, in a major way!

Funny! I was thinking the same thing. It obviously wasn't intentional, but it does give him a better image for Budweiser.
As for the security guard, I think somebody is trying to fabricate a lawsuit.
