DOVER, Del. (AP) – Jimmie Johnson needs a mammoth man cave at home for all of his Dover trophies.
Known as the Monster Mile, the Dover winner gets a menacing, red-eyed Miles The Monster trophy that weighs 60 pounds and measures at just under 1 1/2 feet from the base to the top of the hand that clutches a mini car.
But it’s not the oversized reward Johnson truly wants at Dover.
“You guys have tall Budweisers in victory lane,” Johnson said, joking.
Happy hour usually comes late Sunday afternoon at Dover after yet another Johnson victory.
