Classy Dining at the Daytona 500

I don’t think you have to be a total snob to realize that there’s something about the words "Budweiser" and "Bistro" that so do not go together. Don’t get me wrong, I like Bud as much as any other race fan, but trying to put the whole Parisian-cafe spin on the classic redneck beer just doesn’t strike me as history’s most brilliant marketing move. Still, while I can’t speak for the food, it appears that some pretty cool stuff goes down at the Budweiser Bistro—they had Dale Jr. serving beer to lucky fans at a past Daytona 500, back when Bud was his primary sponsor. The Bistro might just be a Daytona thing, but keep an eye out for it and similarly goofy eateries at this year’s NASCAR events.
