It has gotten to a point where it won’t be a stretch to say Brandon Brown is the victim of a curse. A curse that is probably not allowing the NASCAR Xfinity Series driver to have a ‘normal’ sponsorship so that he can simply focus on racing.

After the controversial sponsorship of LBGCoin, which was unsurprisingly axed by NASCAR, Brown has now found another sponsor.

This one is called Zero FG Energy Drink. As for what it is, well, it’s in the name. Or is it?

What is Zero FG Energy Drink?

Zero FG is a fresh energy drink brand that was launched by Josh Askew.

However, what seems normal on the surface is something that is looking more and more suspicious, according to NASCAR fans. Because this brand isn’t even a month old.

Their first Instagram post was a week ago. And so far, there’s little to no information on their background, their investors, and their organization.

All there is to know is that they’re sponsoring the NASCAR driver.

Why are they supporting Brandon Brown?

In their press release, the CEO and Founder of Zero FG said, “Today’s world can be noisy and, at times, difficult to navigate–but it doesn’t have to be.”

“Zero FG Energy Drink was created to represent a brand new culture for those who are tired of wasting their energy on the daily dramas of life and just want to live free.”

Askew continued, “I feel strongly that Brandon (Brown) will make a great ambassador for our brand, and we look forward to the start of what is hopefully a long and successful partnership.”

What happened to Brandon Brown’s sponsors?

Brown’s previous sponsor, the much controversial LBGCoin, was given a red flag by NASCAR.

The meme-crypto coin was dubious in its very foundations, standing for ‘Let’s Go Brandon’, a political chant that emerged after Brown’s victory in Talladega. When this sponsorship was announced, fans went hysterical, for obvious reasons.

But then NASCAR stepped in, having ‘approved’ it before, they axed it soon.
