Kurt & Wendell “WOW” Them In Indy

July 27, 2009

Miller Lite Dodge Driver Kurt Busch had some special assistance during last Friday night’s appearance at Chammp’s Americana in North Indianapolis, when Wendell, the Miller High Life delivery guy from TV commercial fame, showed up.

“What a cool guy,” Kurt said of Wendell Middlebrooks, the TV commercial star who has become a folk hero among Americans.  “Wendell came driving up out front in the High Life delivery truck and everyone went nuts in the place.  I’d met him briefly at the MillerCoors national sales convention a few months back, but this was the first time we’d done an on-premise appearance together.

“He’s such a likeable fellow and does such a great job in representing the Miller High Life brand,” Kurt continued.  “The dude even brought me my own High Life delivery man’s shirt and I wore it to the track on Saturday.  I’m thinking of something cool I can give him in return.  We’ll hopefully have him visit us at some of the races before the year is over.  We were already talking about doing some more bar appearances together and I hope that comes together.”
