It ultimately led to the uncovering of the skull’s secret.

On April 24th, Keselowski shared a photo of the skull on his Twitter account, along with a caption asking for help: “Found this skull last week on a beach with the girls. Still haven’t figured out what it is. Looking for some Twitter help. Do you know?” It wasn’t long before several fans stepped in to assist.

Brad Keselowski is a professional NASCAR driver, but he is also a lover of the outdoors. He often spends time with his family exploring the wilderness and enjoying the beauty of nature. During one of his recent beach trips with his daughters, he stumbled upon a mysterious object that caught his attention – a skull.

However, he was unsure of what kind of skull it was and decided to seek help from his followers on Twitter.

He received many responses from his fans, including one from a user called Chris Farlow, who suggested that it might be a Channel Catfish Skull.

In his tweet to Keselowski, Farlow said, “Hi Brad, much respect to what you are taking on at RFK. I was able to reverse image search your image using google lens, and it gave me a promising lead. From what I see, it appears to be a Channel Catfish Skull. They are found all over the Eastern half of the US.” 

The user also provided a link to an image search that seemed to confirm his theory. Brad was quick to reply to the user and praised him for his great illustrations in a tweet saying, “Bonus points for this guy with the illustrations”.

This interaction sparked a series of responses from other Twitter users, some of whom shared their own experiences with identifying skulls, while others simply expressed their admiration for Keselowski’s willingness to engage with fans on such a personal level.

Despite the illustrations and all, Farlow wasn’t the first one to uncover the mystery. Another Twitter user by the name of William Allen initially replied to Keselowski’s tweet and said, “Channel Catfish”. This reply tweet received attention from the RFK Racing Driver, who replied to him saying, “Dude nailed it. Just looked it up. Mystery solved. Bookmarking him for future animal questions.”

Brad’s tweet and the subsequent interaction with fans caused quite a stir on Twitter. Fans expressed their amazement and congratulated Brad on solving the mystery, with one tweeting “That is awesome glad you got it figured out 🙂.” Another fan, however, was skeptical, stating that it was unlikely to find a freshwater fish like the Channel Catfish on a beach. A few fans, meanwhile, took the opportunity to joke around, with one tweeting, “No, no….that’s Carl Edwards.”
