In an audio clip recorded at a fundraiser on November 6, 2023, Sheehy brags about roping and branding with members of the Crow Nation. He says “it’s a great way to bond with the Indians while they’re drunk at 8:00 a.m.”

Sheehy has a pattern of speaking about the Crow, according to Char-Koosta. At other events, Sheehy mimicked Crow tribal members calling him “white boy” and throwing Coors beer cans at his head when he misses a double-heel shot at their rodeo.

    “when they’re drunk at 8am”, he didnt say “we”

    also note the other quotes in the article that similarly single out Crow.

        You can tell it’s racist because there’s a Redditor in the comments assuring everyone it’s not racist, calling someone white boy is the real racism.

        It’s not racist when they call him white boy, it’s racist he tells that story.

        if you think calling people “white boy” is racist but the way he talks about indigenous people here isn’t you are such a fragile little cracker it’s not even funny

          It’s hilarious that you’d accuse others of being fragile, especially in this context. You just need him to be racist sooooo bad.
