Indy 500.

I wasn't sure where to post this. Well it looks like the Indy 500 will be "blacked out" here in Indiana again! They'll be showing it on tape delay at the exact same time as the Coca-cola 600. By then, I'll already know who won anyway!
Guess I'll have to find a radio station again this year!

I'm not an IRL fan, but I do like watching the Indy 500 as long as it's not on at the same time as NASCAR!

Re: Indy 500.

Why a blackout in your area, IndyNASCARGirl? Attendance not a sellout?

That's what I'm guessing. Last year, I had to listen to it on the radio an Illinois station at that. It used to not be that way. I'd like to see Michael Andretti (I always liked his dad) finally win it this year and if not him, then Danica.

Hey indyNASCARgirl, I like to watch all types of racing! I hope Michael Andretti wins, if not, for sure Danica Patrick, it would be really cool for her to win!! I always liked Mario, too, but I really like Michael! To bad, it's blacked out for you, they will black out some football games around here! Luckily, they haven't blacked out a race!!!

Re: Indy 500.

I can't believe someone would black out the Indy 500!

I mean, that's like trying to black out a World Series game or something, for crying out loud. Attendance be damned, everybody needs to be able to see the big one at the Brickyard, right? This, to me, is just unbelievable!

No, years ago it would be shown live on television. Now it's shown at the same time as the Coke 600. And if I have to pick between the Indy 500 and NASCAR, I pick NASCAR.

Too bad they can't show it on an alternate channel (like Fox does with the Pacers).

Re: Indy 500.

Indycargirl,
OK two questions, if you prefer NASCAR over Indycar why is your name Indycar girl and two...how far are you from the race,,,why dont you just get up and go. Be a true fan and buy a ticket..better yet just drive to Chicago and watch it at the Cubbie Bear or something

I'm IndyNASCARgirl. I'm a bigger fan of NASCAR and the only time I watch (or listen) to Indy car racing is during the 500. Other than that I don't watch Indy car.
