In the year 1972 in our timeline, the American government passed a law stating that tobacco can not be advertised on television. However, in this alternative universe, this law was narrowly defeated. As of result of this, tobacco is advertised on television (and eventually the Internet) through the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s. Cigarette sales rose instead of dropped and the NASCAR Winston Cup remains the NASCAR Winston Cup to this present day (2007). As a result:

As a result: * Juan Pablo Montoya never leaves Formula 1; as Roman Catholics do not believe in advertising a "dangerous" drug like tobacco * lung cancer beats all other cancers as the #1 leading cause of death for all people in North America regardless of gender * people who would watch the NASCAR under our timeline's NEXTEL Cup banner (a cell phone company) would refuse to watch a sports event sponsored by "big tobacco" * cigarette commercials dominate the advertising between NASCAR races; this stigma keeps it generally within a White Anglo Saxon Protestant (WASP) male population, as opposed to a more diverse audience it would get if sponsored by an alternative industry
