TODAY- Super Bowl and NCAA football champion
Ken Stabler, president of Legend Cellars,
announced that Legend Cellars will partner
with and sponsor Thomas “Moose” Praytor’s
Max Force Race team in 2011. The “12”
Championship Collection Wine label complete
with a snake and championship ring will
appear on Moose’s Ford Fusion with the
Legend Cellars Crest. “Our wine is all
about celebrating great teams and success,
the Moose and his team embody that idea,”
said Stabler.
In addition to carrying the Legend Cellars
Wine colors the Moose’s number will change
from 28 to Stabler’s iconic #12. Along with
the number change, Moose’s Yellow trim will
be changed to Crimson and White. “Mr. Ken is
a legend and to have him entrust promoting
his new Legend Cellars Wine with our race
team is a real honor. Mr. Ken has been to
the shop and to the track with our race
team, it may have been a while since he
competed on the field but he still knows how
to inspire teammates and you can see our
guys get a lift when he’s with us,” offered
the Moose.
The Wine ride will race this weekend at the
opener of the Sunoco Gulf Coast
Championship. The series starts Friday,
March 25th at Pensacola 5 Flags
Speedway and continues on Saturday night,
March 26th, at Mobile
International Speedway, a Rick Crawford
Performance Track with the Miller Lite 100.
Moose has announced a 22 – race schedule
along the Gulf Coast. “I’ve been watching
Thomas race since he was at Sunny South
Speedway in a Bandolero, his determination
and commitment to racing is incredible. I’m
pumped up to be a part of his effort as he
moves up to the next level,” said Stabler.
Legend
Cellars Wine:
Stabler’s Legend Cellars partnered with
Anderson Estate Wines of Santiago Chile to
produce the “12” Championship Collection.
The “12” Championship Collection consist of
five expressive world-class wines. The tag
line, “Celebrate your success,” alluding to
Stabler’s winning career can be found on
each bottle. A portion of the sales will
benefit the XOXO Stabler Foundation, which
supports such charities as the Cystic
Fibrosis Foundation, the Mulherin Custodial
Home for special-needs children in Mobile,
and Mobile's Camp Rap-A-Hope, a summer camp
for children with cancer.
Thomas
“Moose” Praytor:
Starting with a borrowed Go-Kart the Moose
and his Max Force Race Team have parlayed
that small beginning to become a Track
champion, a State Champion and a 3-time US
Army Rookie of the Year. The Moose earned
his nickname from one of his first sponsors,
the Outdoor Channel. The Moose’s Outdoor
Channel Bandolero featured a large Moose
coming out of the wheel well, his name on
the roof was changed to Thomoose and now is
simply “Moose.” The Moose will be attempting
to win US Army Rookie of the Year honors
again in 2011, as he makes his first Super
Late Model start. For more Moose:
