Song of the Day: Darlington County

This song doesn’t need much of an explanation as to why I chose it. Today is the Bojangles Southern 500 at Darlington Raceway. It is a big race in the NASCAR world, not only because of its history, but it is such a significant race in regards to the NASCAR playoffs. This Bruce Springsteen song was released in 1984 and Harry Gant happened to be the winner of the Southern 500 in that year. Tomorrow will be the 35th anniversary of that race. Tune in tonight at 6pm EST on NBCSN and watch all of the action unfold. My pick is Kyle Larson for the race. Have a happy race day, Sunday, and Labor Day weekend!
