Well you have your fairy tale at least.
Sometimes, Joe Gibbs can be a little bit scary when he needs to be. Poor old Tony Stewart found out the hard way when he decided to leave.

You would think sold out Joe would have learned. But he lost Larson and Bell ain't happy.
Gibbs said Tuesday he learned early in his tenure that sprint car racing was Stewart’s passion and the car owner had to accept Stewart’s participation in other series. He said all team meetings were disrupted by Stewart updating the group on his latest adventures outside of NASCAR.
“I had to spend 30 minutes listening to him how he won a dirt late model race, and I wanted to go, ‘I don’t care, OK?'” Gibbs said, laughing. “But he was so excited. I came to the conclusion that was him — for him to be happy and doing the things that he wanted to do, he was going to be racing.”
At the time with Gibbs:
He owns Tony Stewart Racing which races in USAC Midget and Sprint Car divisions and World of Outlaws Sprint Car series. Combined he has eight championships from his four drivers, one of which is the current reigning champion. He also owns three dirt car tracks, one which he owns fully.
