I was fortunate to spend Memorial Day weekend with 350,000 of my closest friends watching the 100th running of the Indy 500! Here are MY highlights in no particular order:1. Singing God Bless America with 300,000 other folks (I'm pretty sure that 50,000 were lip syncing)
2. Standing amongst 350,000 people and applauding the Military March of Veterans (yup, everybody)
3. The last lines of the Star Spangled Banner drowned out by a B52 bomber fly over.
4. The first time by under the green flag...WOW.
5. Danica leading late in the race for 10 laps.
6. The Yard of Bricks, the leader pole, and the trophy
7. All the winning cars from 1911-2011
8. Sitting in an Indy car!!
9. Taking a picture with Danica's car.
10. Walking around the entire outside of Indianapolis Motor Speedway (and sneaking as many views of the track as possible).
