Indy Car racing star Danica Patrick is a woman, and women are notoriously inattentive drivers. That's what makes her hitting crew member Chuck Buckman on Friday afternoon during practice for the Indy 500 so hilarious. She was probably using the rearview mirrow to check her lipstick! Because women often do that, you see.
Buckman stumbled and his left leg was clipped by her left front tire, knocking him in the air. His head then hit her rear tire before he hit the ground.
Buckman suffered a concussion, scalp and facial abrasions but was awake and alert Friday night at Methodist Hospital. I really don’t remember how it happened,” Buckman said in a statement from the Speedway. “All I remember is I was talking with someone on Marco Andretti’s team and then everything is blank from that point.”
Sounds like the man is in love. He went head over heels – check. Can't remember how it happened – check. Concussion and facial abrasions – check. In a related story, I love you honey! Don't worry about the police. I would never press charges. It's my fault for making you so mad.

This would make more sense if she was Asian.
Maybe there was a huge 12-hour sale at the Dress Barn?
I'll bet you didn't know Danica Patrick is secretly a rogue BoSox fan.

//Hilarious name
After being run over by the woman driver, he sued her using that Jew lawyer before getting some solid advice from his Irish bar tender.
“All I remember is I was
talking with someone on Marco Andretti’s teamsitting at a New Jersey diner eating onion rings with my family and then everything is blank from that point.”/bitter Sopranos fan rant
She's slammin….
…I woulda forgave her
I believe this should be filed under the same tag as the "Obama plays basketball" post
@Burnsy: if she were Asian, the impact wouldn't even have knocked the guy down.
“All I remember is I was talking with someone on Marco Andretti’s team and then everything is blank from that point.â€
That’s what happens when you get Doogie’s chloroform involved.
He might want to re-think wandering around in the pits in the future.
He went head over heels – check. Can’t remember how it happened – check. Concussion and facial abrasions – check.
Buckman reports-“Danicka’s drive side rear tire a pound heavy due to face residue.”
Sounds like my Friday night…
Danica,
do your makeup before you get in the car and stay off the god damn phone!
"After being run over by the woman driver, he sued her using that Jew lawyer before getting some solid advice from his Irish bar tender."
Carlos Mencia will now steal this joke in 3….2….1….
So her pop from winning that race in Japan lasted what…three weeks?
C'mon dear, put the latte down, will ya.
