Dale Jr.'s newest gifts include horse, stroller


Everything is bigger in Texas, and that was certainly the case when Texas Motor Speedway gave Dale Earnhardt Jr. his retirement gifts Friday.

The No. 88 Chevrolet driver won his first NASCAR Cup Series race at the Texas track - where the AAA Texas 500 is Sunday - and its farewell gifts to him did not disappoint.

Track president Eddie Gossage joined Junior's press conference while decked out in a cowboy shirt and hat with twinkle lights on it and rode in on a horse named Sarah Jessica Parker. Seriously.
