The winner of the New Hampshire NASCAR Cup Series race receives one of the most unique trophies in all of sports — a live lobster. But not just any lobster, a massive lobster. The 2024 version of "Loudon" is the biggest one in the 15year tradition.
I sat down with Jim and Nick Makris, the two people responsible for getting the lobster from the water to Victory Lane. We talked about the tradition of giving a lobster, how it started, what happens to the lobster after it's presented to the winner, and how some drivers have a specific superstition about the creature.
