[quote=Lee Robison]My father, Charlie Robison was a camera man with WFBM TV for the 1949 & 1950 "500", so the 500 has always had a special place in our hearts. In 1975 the family was at the race and my father was able to get a pit pass which would allow us to go down on the track and take pictures of the cars and drivers. I took the pass down to the gate in front of the tower and was turned away. The reason? I was wearing shorts. Going back to our seats in Tower Terrace my father asked why I was back so soon. I told him my sad story and he jumped up and I followed. Now my dad was a modest hoosier and when we went to the restroom below the stands and changed pants with me that was one of best memories. I got on the track and have some wonderful photographs while dad sat in the stands getting a sunburn on his very white legs. God bless you dad and rest in peace.[/quote]
