My wife and I had a great time at the race yesterday. Perfect weather and a great race. It is fun to get together with 250,000 + of your closest friends. Jim Nabors sang "Back Home in Indiana" for the last time at Indy, and there was a great pre-race tribute to our military.
Brought two half growlers of local craft brews and I was pleasantly surprised that there was a beer truck with other local beers. Beer, Brats and racing! Overall a great day.

Doc - I was there, too. Great race, great weather, great vacation - a nice trifecta!
I've been there every year since 1975, with the exception of 2006.
I was in B-Stand, top row:

On Friday, I like to sit in "the really good seats" for Carb Day:

The Indy Lights race that day had a great finish, too!
I tried some really good local brews while in town, too:
Sun King - Osiris Pale Ale
Fountain Square - Soul Ride IPA
Flat12 Bierwerks - Hello My Name Is Amber Ale
That was another nice trifecta.
