Brian Vickers thrown out of Sin City

Apparently being one of Nascar's rising young stars won't get you out of showing ID.
Brian Vickers, one of the sport's youngest drivers, was denied admittance last weekend to a showing of the R-rated movie "Sin City" at a local movie theater.
"The youth tried to buy a ticket, and we asked him for ID", explained theater manager Scott Wilson. "When he couldn't produce a driver's license, he was turned away."
When informed of Vickers' excuse, that he had left the ID with the fat guy from the ditech.com ads, Wilson chuckled and responded "yeah, that was the fourth time I'd heard that that day."
Vickers then appeared to leave. However, he was seen shortly afterward attempting to sneak into the theater. An usher promptly threw Vickers out and officially banned him from the movieplex for six months.
"Sin City", the epic film from Robert Rodriguez, was rated R for its strong sexual content, graphic violence, explicit language, and non-stop nudity. As such, those under 17 (or those appearing under 17) have been turned away at theaters across the country.
Vickers was unavailable for comment, but teammate Jeff Gordon was willing to talk about the situation.
"Man, that sucks--Sin City was great, and the guy who played Marv was a BEAST!", explained Gordon. "Things have been tough for Brian--first Britny Gastineau turns him down, now this"
