Brandon Brown \u2013 a NASCAR driver that\u2019s inspired the many \u201cLet\u2019s Go Brandon\u201d chants heard at sports arenas and gatherings across the country for the past several months \u2013 is now being sponsored by a cryptocurrency established through the chant in what has become a unique (and amusing) circle.<\/p>\n
\u201cLet\u2019s Go Brandon\u201d has been a trend for months now and is designed to hide what speakers are really saying, which is \u201cF*ck Joe Biden.\u201d The chant takes aim at the current President of the United States and his growing incompetency. Things started in the late summer following the Afghanistan debacle that left several Americans, allies, and billion-dollar equipment behind as the 20-year war that had taken place in that country came to an abrupt and ugly end. The results arguably led to 13 deceased American soldiers and a near-full takeover of the country by the Taliban.<\/p>\n
Soon after, many Americans attending sports events across the country began shouting \u201cF*ck Joe Biden\u201d as a means of showing disdain for the current president. From there, the chant became louder and stronger across the nation as other problems \u2013 including inflation, rising gas prices, supply chain issues, and a weak response to the COVID pandemic \u2013 began taking hold. As the chant gets larger, Biden\u2019s poll numbers seem to get shakier.<\/p>\n
\u201cLet\u2019s Go Brandon\u201d stems from a NASCAR event that featured Brandon Brown getting interviewed by a reporter. In the background was the now common chant taking stabs at the president. The reporter allegedly believed that the crowd was instead yelling \u201cLet\u2019s Go Brandon.\u201d These words have since been used in lieu of the prior words at many gatherings as a means of adding more fuel to the fire and poking fun at the President and the media.<\/p>\n
A new cryptocurrency \u2013 known as LGB Coin (short for \u201cLet\u2019s Go Brandon\u201d coin) \u2013 has now partnered with Brandon Brown. The driver will be seen cruising down the racetrack in a red, white, and blue Chevrolet with the meme coin\u2019s name displayed prominently across the side.<\/p>\n
In an interview, Brown explained:<\/p>\n
\nHaving the financial support of LGB Coin is incredible, especially at such a pivotal time in our team’s growth as we work to build to the next level of competition. From wondering if we would have the financial means to continue to compete, to my first major win (at Talladega no less), to becoming an unintentional meme, this past season was a rollercoaster. The support of sponsors like LGB Coin empowers us to be as competitive as possible, and I’m looking forward to competing hard on the track in 2022.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Despite accepting the endorsement, Brown has stated this is more about pushing the world of racing, and he has no desire to be involved in politics.<\/p>\n
