Kenny Wallace Slams NASCAR Fans for Overreacting to Ticketmaster Partnership

Kenny Wallace Slams NASCAR Fans for Overreacting to Ticketmaster Partnership

Former NASCAR star Kenny Wallace is calling out NASCAR fans for their outrage over the sport’s new partnership with Ticketmaster, branding the uproar as overblown and hypocritical. NASCAR recently announced its collaboration with Ticketmaster for the 2025 season and beyond, sparking a wave of criticism from its passionate fanbase.

Ticketmaster, notorious for its frequent technical glitches, extra fees, and ongoing legal issues, has long been a lightning rod for complaints. Many NASCAR fans fear that these problems will now plague their race day experiences. However, Wallace, a former NASCAR Xfinity Series race winner, sees the backlash as another example of fans overreacting to the sport’s decisions.

“Drama beyond belief!” Wallace exclaimed. “NASCAR is announcing that they’re going to use Ticketmaster, and the fans are losing their minds. I don’t know what to say because every sporting event and every concert uses Ticketmaster, right? But it seems like anything NASCAR does is bad. When the NFL does it, it’s like, ‘Well, we’ll talk about it.’”

Wallace highlighted the double standards of fans who seem willing to tolerate similar decisions from other major leagues like the NFL without the same level of outrage. He acknowledged Ticketmaster’s well-documented flaws but emphasized that its widespread use across the sports and entertainment industry shows there’s a reason for its partnerships.

“If Ticketmaster is so bad, why are all sporting events using them?” Wallace asked rhetorically. “I get it, I’m with you all—I know how frustrating Ticketmaster can be. But my question is this: if they’re so bad, why does the US government allow them? How are they able to get away with this?”

Wallace’s comments reflect the broader frustration with NASCAR fans’ tendency to criticize the sport’s every move. While Ticketmaster’s poor reputation is well-known, Wallace urges fans to give the partnership a chance, suggesting that it could ultimately bring benefits to the sport.

NASCAR’s collaboration with Ticketmaster could streamline ticketing processes and improve the overall fan experience. Wallace’s stance is clear: before jumping to conclusions, fans should see how the partnership plays out. This change, like many others, might turn out to be a positive step forward for the sport and its dedicated community.
