Original Note:
The phrase "Lets go Brandon" was started by a reporter, Kelly Stavast, covering a race car event and interviewing Brandon Brown. The reporter mistook the crowd shouting "F Joe Biden" as "Lets go Brandon" This poster is making a similar mistake. https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nascar/news/lets-go-brandon-nascar-interview-anti-joe-biden/rqxuo9rdmr1o91zoimp2jevo https://www.forbes.com/sites/gregengle/2021/12/21/nascar-driver-behind-lets-go-brandon-hoping-to-turn-the-narrative-around/?sh=43d3cde6470c https://www.nytimes.com/2021/12/19/business/brandon-brown-lets-go-brandon.html
