He said, “Then there’s other times where they’ve either got, you know, beer bottles or sports drink bottles or whatever and they’re spraying those because they’re just in the victory lane.
“Sponsors sponsor victory lane and so they’re throwing, they’re spraying those and then when they’re done with them, what’s always weird to me is the crew guys are looking at me, and so you throw where you look and I’m getting hit, and I’m like, ‘Why are you guys throwing the bottles? Like spray it and then drop it.'”
He also mentioned the “smart” move he learned while winning. Kyle, in order to avoid the excited crowd’s onslaught (throwing in objects) had to adapt. “From like the third win on I was like keep your helmet on! Every time I get out of the car I keep my helmet on,” he added.
