Really? That's pretty surprising. Did you look up any of the other
favorites (Little E, Mikey, Jeff Gordon, etc.) to see if they were more
easily located on the sponsor sites? I am surprised that THD doesn't show
off TS. Hmm........

That's cause you go HomeDepotRacing.com if you want to find anything Tony
and Home Depot Related.

There are three Home Depots that I frequent, and all three have Tony Stewart
prominently displayed at the entrance, and have Tony Displays in various
areas of the store. Now consider I live in an area where not too many
sponsors display anything about racing.

Why would a sponsor devote valuable web space to a NASCAR team? Does Nike
advertise every single athlete they sponsor or endorse on their website?
Does Ford put their football stadium on their homepage?

It's up to the athlete or team to advertise their sponsors, not the other
way around.

Now, I'm jealous of you!! My Home Depot only show's things of Tony related
when they come around for the Sonoma race. They didn't even mention
anything about his merchandise trailer being at the store when it came
around last year.

Do you think Home Depot has a problem with people not knowing who they are
or what they do?
