Barrett Jackson hosts?
I cannot think of the guys name always at the podium with Craig Jackson, but does anyone know why he always wears sun glasses? Just wondering since I’ve never seen him without them.

He has some sort of eye issue. Usually mentions it at every auction.
Forgot to mention, that is Steve Davis, President of B-J. |

Oh I thought that might be why, but never heard him or anyone explain it, not that it’s anyone’s business, just thought it peculiar that I've never seen him without the glasses and could tell from his actions and car descriptions he didn’t appear to be blind. Those guys know a lot about cars, especially the two that run most of the commentary.

Personally, I think he has a lot more "car clout" than Craig Jackson. Craig Jackson just reminds me of your typical car salesman.

He does. My dad knows him. There were rumors he was leaving BJ a few years back but I guess the issues were worked through.

It’s pretty damn bright on that stage- at any time there are probably 100 lights pointed at you. Even during the day on Friday it was tough. Can’t imagine how it would be if your eyes were ultra sensitive

I understand he's got a problem with bright light, a condition my wife also has. It's not pleasant.

My brother has the same issue, he has always wears sunglasses when others dont, funny thing is he cant see anything at night! As I get older I find I am more sensitive to bright lighting as well. I have a nice pair of polarized sunglasses that help.

"The King", Richard Petty, also is afflicted with light sensitivity issues, since he was a young man. You very seldom see Richard Petty without sunglasses, or the trademark cowboy hat to cut light down even further.
