On the final Happy Hour episode of the 2023 NASCAR season, Frontstretch‘s Trey Lyle, Michael Massie, Bryan Nolen and Tom Bowles select the winners of the first inaugural Happy Hour Awards.

Forget the Oscars, forget the Grammys, the Happy Hour Awards Show is the new craze.
“I think this is going to be the most prestigious awards show in the history of award shows,” Lyle said.
