Dale Earnhardt Jr. says he suffers from a jewelry phobia. Not kidding! He says he gets grossed out by metal jewelry the same way some people react in crowds or around spiders and snakes.
Dale says his wife, Amy, thought that he was making it up and that there’s no such thing as a jewelry phobia….oh but there is a word. It’s a very long, weird and crazy word the word is kosmemophobia.
Dale Jr adds he doesn’t like wearing a wedding band and he doesn’t like being close to metal jewelry. He said that’s why he has a unique wedding ring and the root of his and Amy’s new deal with a company that sells silicone rings — a popular option for a variety of athletes.
Dale Jr says, “my wedding ring is actually a wooden ring. I don’t want to wear that too much because it could get scratched or broken, and so I wear Qalo rings, which are like a rubber composite sort of material, and they’re very comfortable. I’ve been wearing their product for a good damn reason because my jewelry phobia is real.”
