One of the greatest commentators EVER to live. I'm truely emotional, because Benny was my favorite commentator next to Bob Jenkins. R.I.P TV commentary legend.

This one really took me by surprise. Life without BP isn't gonna be the same. So I guess his last race was won by Biffle, who he discovered, which is only fitting. RIP, Benny, you were the King of Cool. |

Indeed. I always considered Benny as the John Madden of NASCAR. Everyone always knew who he was, and how passionate he was about our sport. |

Bobby's hit a little harder than Benny's but it's a tough deal when someone you've heard call races pretty much you're entire life and seen on all the specials and everything is gone. |

I've made two 72s, a gold one on a white background and a white one on a orange background but until our new net gets installed Thursday I can't upload it. I think I'm gonna just use Bobby's since like I said Benny's is real sad but Bobby's hit a little harder. |

I didn't really care for his commentary at least not the last few years, but I liked him as a person. RIP Benny. |

Yep. Nobody got more excited over something like a 3 wide pass as he did. I pulled up Jayski and thought that it couldn't be, but it was. It's not gonna be the same without him. |
