Joe Gibbs is a champion. This humble man from North Carolina has reached the pinnacle of success in two different sports. As the beloved Washington Redskins head coach, he took his team to four Super Bowls in 12 years, winning three of them. He resigned in 1993 in order to spend more time with family.
Along with many of those family members, Joe formed the Joe Gibbs Racing Team. Now, he’s a NASCAR champion. In 2000 his driver, Bobby LaBonte, won the Winston Cup (NASCAR’s championship) and two years later his teammate Tony Stewart won the championship. They continue to be among the top NASCAR drivers. In addition, Joe’s back at the helm of the Redskins.
He is active in various charities. He founded Youth for Tomorrow, a residential group village for at-risk teenage boys and girls in Virginia.
