2013 Indy 500

Like every other year since I've known Mike, we joined a large group of friends to watch the world's largest spectacle in sports: the Indianapolis 500. Tailgating takes place in the exact same spot each year. With arrival time around 7-8am. We eat a motherload of a breakfast, drink beer and mimosas (or just champagne straight from the bottle), people watch and relax before the big walk to the track.

Mikey put on the Superman snuggie and proceeded to put on a show for all the cars passing by. If they honked, Mike gave them a thumbs up. It's truly hard to put into words how comical this was...and it never got old. Haven't laughed that hard in a very long time!
Was SO happy to have this girl back at the race this year!

Same seats every year, too!
Zoom, zoom!
This year was my first to venture into the infield and then into the 'snake pit.' We had several friends in there so we girls braved it and had quite the adventure. I'll spare you all the details and even pictures, as it was quite an experience and one better kept unwritten. Until next year, Indy!
