Those concession stands ran out of both items only hours into the rain delayed race. Compounding the disaster was the fact that Kentucky Speedway prohibits fans from bringing their own coolers full of beer and munchies to the track. As the race was delayed by rain one can imagine the irritation of fans showing up at those concession stands for a burger and beer to be told only ice cream and soft drinks were still available. Other irritations writers noted were more minor and occasionally almost comical. Bring a scanner.
Race cars are loud.
And any track that would invite a member of the James Gang to do the pre-race concert is all right in my book. So all right, Joe Walsh forgot some of the words to the Star Spangled Banner. The seventies were very, very, good to Joe. For all his talent the late Jimi Hendrix decided to play an instrumental version of the Banner at Woodstock rather than try to remember the words on a wild weekend. And that little girl at Las Vegas set a record for the worst rendition of the Anthem that no one is likely to beat in our lifetimes.
