Fans scribble messages to Jeff Gordon on his pit stall (Photos)
Jeff Gordon fans filled his pit wall at Homestead-Miami Speedway with good luck messages before the start of Sunday's Ford 400.
It's the four-time champion driver's last race before he moves to the broadcast booth (a race that will be delayed by rain). Before the rain hit, his pit box had numerous fans with sharpies. Here are a few of the messages that we saw.
Yes, we took note of some of the odder ones.

Many of the messages contained "#24ever" a hashtag commemorating Gordon's retirement and it was clear that Gordon was the most popular driver when it came to fan attire in the garage and grandstands.
