nice hat!
My grandpa and my dad have been taking us to the '500' for years, and always said that every time you walk through the gates, you never know what to expect.  Oh what great books any one of us long-time fans could write filled with such memories!  One particular year, 2005, stands out for me as one of my favorites.  The night before the race, a friend of mine purchased a very unique hat on Georgetown, and somehow convinced me to wear it on Race Day.  After one of the more exciting races, my family embarked on its annual excursion to the infield, Gasoline Alley, and to the yard of bricks.  As the sun was setting over the main grandstands and we approached Victory Lane, a familiar figure was standing around, recounting and absorbing the accounts of the day.  Yes, the newly crowned champion, Dan Wheldon!  After some congratulatory remarks, I asked him to stand next to me for a picture.  He was all too happy to oblige.  Then, jokingly, I asked him to wear the hat for the picture, to which he replied, "Why not?"  The resulting picture has quickly become legendary amongst my family and friends.
