Robert Glenn "Junior" Johnson, RIP

Legendary stock car racer (and occasional moonshiner) Junior Johnson has died at 88.


The last American hero.

He was convicted of moonshining in 1956 after authorities staked out the family still. President Ronald Reagan pardoned him on Dec. 26, 1986. “No maybe about it. Best Christmas gift I ever got."

I remember that. Very Reagan-esque.

RIP Junior
