You gotta be a man ...
1:48 PM
... to pull off a "bun." Was just inside the door to the media center and someone said, "What's Lennox Lewis doing here?" Peered around the corner and saw a tall -- though not particularly bulky -- black man coming toward the door. He had a Seattle's Best Coffee muffin-sized bun at the back of his head, which I guess was the giveaway.
I held the door open, for which he thanked me. And for the record, the former Olympic gold medalist and three-time World Heavyweight champion is going to be part of pre-race ceremonies, including greeting each Nextel Cup driver.
Unfortunately he was at the wrong end of the facility for the drivers' meeting, which he needed to attend about 15 minutes later.
