I see three old, now deceased, acquaintances in this photo, Standing behind the red tool box on the right, in the camel colored western blazer, is Joe Whitlock, Dale Earnhardt's and Wrangler's racing P.R. man. To the left, in the blue western blazer, is Robert. M. Odear (Charlie Bob), president of Blue Bell, Inc. (Wrangler's parent) and the man who hired me to manage the Wrangler NASCAR program.Directly behind the Dale Earnhardt Wrangler Jeans Machine wearing a red & white outfit and wearing sunglasses was T. Wayne Robertson, then Team Manger for the Winston Racing program sponsorship.The fellow in the blue & yellow Wrangler coat is Richard Childress, who must of been having a chill directing one of the first pit stops Dale Earnhardt ever made for his team in his first race for RCR.I must be at the concession stand, lol
