Indianapolis – A sports lover’s dream

By Cindy Bolton – Freelance Writer


Drivers start your engines. For every race fan those are the words we long to hear. The fans at the Indianapolis 500 are no different. Every May 250,000 fans converge into the 253 acre track to cheer on their favorite driver. This is one of those events that is a must do. You can purchase a seat around the track or you can bring a blanket and lawn chair and sit in the middle of the track. This is an event that the average Joe can take his family to. While in Indianapolis for the race make a point of attending the Indy 500 parade which takes place through downtown. Another stop that should be on your to-do list is the NCAA Hall of Champions on Washington Street. This is a great way to spend the day and test your skills. Then first floor you will find displays of the top schools and athletes in every NCAA sport. Upstairs is where the fun begins. They have agility tests, trivia games and a basketball court where you can play a game of horse with your family. Bottom line Indianapolis is a great vacation destination for all sports lover’s young and old alike.
