Public proposals for amendments to the Florida Constitution are open, and some of them are real Florida.

This is one of the gems. I'm pretty sure this guy is serious

quote:

The National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing (NASCAR) is the official sport of the State of Florida. It is the policy of this state to foster the growth of the sport by all practicable means. To this end, the State shall build a NASCAR track in every political subdivision with a population in excess of 50,000. Each track may vary in length and shape; however, no track shall be less then one mile and road coarses shall only make up 25% of the total number of tracks. To promote enthusiasm for NASCAR among the citizenry, there shall be no speed limits in the State. Drivers may draft and trade paint so long as such maneuvers are conducted in a reasonably safe manner.

It's actually not weird or trashy enough for Florida.

Over Jai Alai? I don't think so.

I think Jai Alai is more of a South Florida sport as in Miami and very Hispanic areas.

Well, since NASCAR basically originated in Daytona, FL, I see nothing wrong with this, and I'm not a NASCAR fan
