Unless I hear otherwise I’m calling bull on this one. Auburn’s official website is reporting that Michael Waltrip’s #15 Toyota will feature an Auburn-themed paint scheme for the April 17 Aaron’s 500 at Talladega. The date on the press release being April 1, 2010 makes me a little suspicious.
Then again, the press release also reports that Auburn head football coach Gene Chizik will be serving in the role of Grand Marshal for the race. And al.com and the Orlando Sentinel are reporting on the story as fact. So I’m just going to file this under the “I’ll believe it when I see it” file.
