Dale Earnhardt Jr. questions weird Indy 500 pre-race promo
Version 0 of 1. The Indianapolis 500 pre-race promo on ABC was really, truly odd. It featured a guy taking a bath in a tub filled with milk and, for one, Dale Earnhardt Jr., was uncomfortable and perplexed. Indy prerace show is really weird.— Dale Earnhardt Jr. (@DaleJr) May 25, 2014 Indy prerace show is really weird. Awkward moment when @Amy_Reimann walks into the living room and there’s a gimp playing in a bathtub of milk on the tube. Thanks ABC Sports.— Dale Earnhardt Jr. (@DaleJr) May 25, 2014 Awkward moment when @Amy_Reimann walks into the living room and there’s a gimp playing in a bathtub of milk on the tube. Thanks ABC Sports. .@DaleJr I missed it. You’re off the hook.— Amy Reimann (@Amy_Reimann) May 25, 2014 .@DaleJr I missed it. You’re off the hook. “@vtborn: @DaleJr @Amy_Reimann try watching it with your mother in law.” Bwahah— Dale Earnhardt Jr. (@DaleJr) May 25, 2014 “@vtborn: @DaleJr @Amy_Reimann try watching it with your mother in law.” Bwahah Dear @ABC Sports - That entire milk/gimp suit package was incredibly creepy - not in keeping with otherwise classy #Indy500 coverage.— mooncusser (@mooncusser2k) May 25, 2014 Dear @ABC Sports - That entire milk/gimp suit package was incredibly creepy - not in keeping with otherwise classy #Indy500 coverage. I’m going to say this… I think @ABCNetwork are doing a good job (gimp/milk thing aside)— Marino Franchitti (@MFranchitti) May 25, 2014 I’m going to say this… I think @ABCNetwork are doing a good job (gimp/milk thing aside) So….

The promo is odd, all right, but it’s still less creepy than those DirecTV ads with the marionettes. Related: Dale Jr., now fully his own man, seeks Coca-Cola 600 win H/T For the Win for the video |
