Ross Chastain Savagely Shuts Down Tyler Reddick as He Tries to Make Fun of the New Face of NASCAR Memes

In recent days, the world of NASCAR Twitter has been buzzing with an influx of hilarious memes, many of which feature none other than Ross Chastain. One can’t help but wonder how the Trackhouse Racing driver feels about being at the center of the meme storm.

Fans had their questions regarding Chastain’s reaction answered when a recent Twitter video by journalist Noah Lewis captured Tyler Reddick inquiring about the same. The Melon Man had a clever comeback prepared for his fellow 23XI Racing driver.

During a press conference involving Chastain, Reddick asked, “I was gonna ask what are your thoughts on your memes on Twitter this week. Have you enjoyed them as much as me?”

Without missing a beat, Chastain replied, “Which one’s your burner account you are posting on?” Reddick then clarified, “No. I’ve just purely been a spectator.”

Chastain’s quick-witted response showcased his sense of humor and ability to roll with the punches. As the saying goes, “laughter is the best medicine,” and it appears that Chastain is taking the meme situation quite well, proving he can have a good laugh at his own expense.

What caused Ross Chastain to become the face of all the memes lately?

During the race at Richmond, Chastain had become a mute spectator while Christopher Bell took out William Byron. However, as with anything involving Chastain within a 100-mile radius, the blame for wrecking Byron fell on the melon man.

Bell had gone on to call Chastain a “wrecking ball.” But after he saw the tapes and realized that Chastain had nothing to do with the incident, he retracted his statement. By then the Twitter meme boat had, however, sailed. Over the past week, we came across several memes involving Chastain. There were even pictures of old wrecks and people mentioning that Chastain did it.

Albeit, they were all humorous at best. At one point even Chastain’s own team posted a photo on Instagram with the caption saying “Of course, it’s raining at Bristol, #ThanksRoss,” basically denoting that no matter what happens, people always blame the hail melon man for it.
