Recently, Lynch was present during the Daytona 500 race at Daytona International Speedway in Florida on February 15. Along with the player, many others including Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua were present at the race.
Leading up to the race, he was seen cruising around in a golf cart with a cooler equipped in front. He then tossed cans of Busch beer to the fans around him, who were excited and catching the beers mid-air. The 39-year-old was shouting “You get a beer!” reminiscent of Oprah’s famous “You get a car!” giveaway.
The moment was captured by NASCAR’s official account, which wrote a caption that said, “The beers are on BEASTMODE. 🍻” It was part of an earlier marketing campaign with the organization, where Lynch along with racing star Bubba Wallace and others appeared in a video to promote the race. Lynch’s antics have went viral with many fans praising the star for his generous and passionate nature.
