Hendrick Motorsports Legend Jimmie Johnson Reignites Rivalry With NASCAR Legend On “New Favourite Show”

Blake Shelton is the undoubted country music sensation. Of course, he’s had his influence make its way into the NASCAR field too, having shared a good bond with Jimmie Johnson. In fact, he even designed his helmet. But the country music star will revive Johnson and Clint Bowyer’s rivalry.

However this time they won’t face off on the track but instead on a game show.

In a recent Twitter post, Shelton announced that Clint Bowyer and the seven-time NASCAR Cup Series Champion, Jimmie Johnson, will join him on Monday’s episode of Barmageddon.

Of course, Johnson and Bowyer have been competitors for years, but it looks like the next face-off on the show will involve a lot of alcohol. But the loser has to chow down a delicious portion of fried bull testicles. Sure, it’s a high-protein meal, but maybe not be the first dish that comes to mind when you think about a delicious bar snack.

The plate of Rocky Mountain Oysters will decide the truth of their rivalry, as Shelton gives Bowyer a chance to rewrite history. So, who do you think will have to munch down the fried northern part of a bull? Let us know your predictions in the comments before we find out the answer on Monday night.

It’s not a surprise that Shelton chose Johnson and Bowyer to accompany him on the show. As discussed earlier, the 7-time champ shares a wonderful friendship with the country music icon. In fact, he even designed his first helmet!

Johnson departed from NASCAR to compete in the single-seater IndyCar series, and it sure was a big event for him. But he had an even more interesting idea heading into the season as he got his first-ever helmet designed by Blake Shelton!

In an episode of The Tonight Show With Jimmie Fallon, the seven-time Champ talked about the questionable idea he had.

Fallon asked Johnson, “You got to design it with Blake Shelton. How did you get involved with that man?” Jimmie replied. “At this point in my career and my life, I just want to do fun things with friends. And to have this opportunity to design the helmet together for supporting the American legion. It’s memorial day weekend. Blake’s family served, my grandfather served.”

However, the real twist came when Jimmie Johnson revealed Blake Shelton’s idea. He said, “Blake wanted to sow a mullet to the back of that car.” “He’s like man, it’ll be so cool, mullet in the back when you put your helmet on.”

DIVE DEEPER

Unfortunately, they didn’t go forward with that idea, despite how awesome it sounds. Would you like to see a real race helmet with a mullet in the back? Let us know in the comments.
