Hammering the Hauler Phone: When Harvick’s Prank Left Josh Jones Fuming

From teammates to rivals, Kevin Harvick has made everyone victim to his pranks. None of them forget the infamous phone prank played on Josh Jones, his team, KHI’s Vice President. During the Nextel Cup Series days, when flip phones with two-way pagers were all the rage, Josh Jones received a brand-new Nextel phone early, sparking envy among others.

Little did Josh know that his joy would soon turn to fury, all thanks to Harvick’s devious scheme. Seizing an opportunity during a track appearance, Harvick cunningly swapped Josh’s prized phone with a dummy display phone, only to retreat to the safety of the motorhome and hauler.

In a YouTube video uploaded by Stewart Haas Racing, innocently unaware, Josh proudly showed off his “new” phone to Kevin, who promptly took a hammer and started smashing it without mercy.

It was a prank of epic proportions, and Josh’s emotions quickly escalated from excitement to anger. He admitted, “I wanted to punch him in the face” as he witnessed his precious phone being destroyed.

To add salt to the wound, little did Josh know that someone behind him was filming the whole fiasco, capturing him in a moment of rage over a fake phone. Harvick’s prankster prowess and Josh’s genuine reaction turned this practical joke into a legendary tale that’s still shared among NASCAR circles today.

Josh emphasized, “I didn’t know that somebody behind me was filming the whole thing so I looked like a complete crybaby but I was that was probably the most mad I’ve ever been at Kevin.”
