Alvin Kamara is becoming one of NASCAR's best celebrity endorsers.
Over the last year, Kamara has grown into a big fan of the sport. This weekend, his juice bar chain The Big Squeezy will be featured on the side of the No. 6 car driven by Ryan Vargas.
Vargas runs for JD Motorsports and the Gary Keller race team in NASCAR's second tier, the Xfinity Series.
The deal came through a Twitter conversation, and as a budding super-fan Kamara was exited to hop aboard for Saturday's race at Daytona's road course.
“When this opportunity presented itself, I knew I couldn’t let it slip by,” Kamara said in statement. “I did a bit of research on Ryan as an individual and JD Motorsports and was impressed with what I read. I’m excited to play a small role in what they already have going on.”
“Having the opportunity to work with Alvin Kamara and The Big Squeezy is such a huge honor,” said Vargas. “As one of the best running backs in the game, I know Alvin puts 110% effort into everything he does and that can easily be said for myself and our No. 6 JD Motorsports team.”
Kamara is co-owner of The Big Squeezy, a Louisiana based chain.
