The racing star will be selling season tickets at the speedway ticket window for an hour on March 13, letting fans get their tickets straight from Biffle or over the phone.

“I’m excited about the prospect of Greg joining our staff,” Kansas Speedway President Jeff Boerger told the Kansas City Kansan. “He’s had a lot of success on the track here and I fully expect him to have the same success selling our season ticket package.”

I know, I know, it’s just a silly publicity stunt, yada yada yada, but I still find it kind of odd. Do they really expect a huge crush of fans rushing to the ticket window, just because Greg Biffle is working there for an hour?

Not being a huge Biffle fan, I’d probably go out of my way to avoid the window he was hawking tickets at, but that’s just me.
