I hadn’t realized that yesterday was the day of The [tag]Brickyard 400[/tag] until I went to pick up my mom at the [tag]airport[/tag] in [tag]Indianapolis[/tag]. There were two [tag]blimps[/tag] hovering over the speedway. I thought something big was happening.

The airport was bustling and there were [tag]policemen[/tag] directing traffic. I haven’t seen that before. It is amazing to me, how many people fly to different sporting events.

On the way home, all the off ramps from the airport to 38th street were blocked. I think it was to avoid [tag]traffic[/tag] congestion in the areas closest to the speedway. Traffic moved right along. We didn’t have any problems or any slow downs.
