Jimmie Johnson has ‘Hangover’ while celebrating in Las Vegas image

Jimmie Johnson is having so much fun celebrating his sixth Sprint Cup championship in Las Vegas that he has a hangover — sort of.

Johnson and some of his Hendrick Motorsports teammates are recreating scenes from the movie “The Hangover” and posting them on Twitter.

“It started on the flight out and people responded well to just a flat-out tweet I sent out and the response from that led to some photos and I’ve got a few other fun things that I’m trying to get squared away to continue the madness,” Johnson told reporters in Las Vegas on Thursday.

Johnson even solicited the help of crew chief Chad Knaus and spotter Earl Barban.

“We have our whole staff here so people had some down time and got a little creative and showed up two days ago with chickens and a stuffed tiger and a baby and a baby carriage and all sorts of fun stuff. That’s been fun to mess with.”

Johnson even posted a video of Mr. Chow.

And he followed up Friday morning with another, more dramatic post in the continuing saga.
