As a Circle City native, Memorial Day weekend always feels festive. I never participate but the Indy 500 permeates the environment in Indianapolis.
FDO
Race Day
Camper cities
Traffic for miles
Checkered flags wave
In all directions
Coolers full of Bud
Dirt cheap sunglasses
Tank tops
Jake the snake around
Brother Henry’s neck
Grilled brats and burgers
“Show us your tits!”
Naps on the infield
Day long engine drone
A rainbow of cotton candy
Tires over the fence
Some foreign guy wins
May is beautiful
In Indy
