wrm5, that would be Pac Man Fever. Which I guess is a subtrope of this, though neither explicitly mentions the other in the description.

Re-clocking this one. Since this page looks to be a supertrope, I'm leaning toward cutting the pic from this page and concentrating on finding pics for the listed tropes at the bottom.

Well, there's some consensus to pull the current, some to keep it but change the caption, and quite a few other suggestions. Is there enough consensus for anything? If not, crowner.

Crowner's hooked...lot of post references instead of actual image suggestions.

Wel, there haven't been any actual image suggestions in this thread, so yeah.

But Nascar is only about turning left.

I think we can call this one.

Agreed.

One possible caption idea, in case we call the crowner: "NASCAR in the eyes of the general public" (or something along those lines)

Yeah, this one's looking safe to call. Some variant of [up] is probably the best take on the caption...maybe "The average Joe's thoughts on NASCAR." or "NASCAR for non-fans."?

[up] The Average Joe one looks like a contender.

I think most caption suggestions are decent enough, but I don't have any favourite. Maybe, "NASCAR if you don't know better."

The "Average Joe" one is good enough for me.

Is that enough consensus for 34.1? Because it's already up and tagged.

A bit more consensus for the current caption and we can lock this.
