Can you still bring a cooler into the seating area?

I have never been but did manage to get 4 seats on one of the turns. I gave the tickets to one of my sons who was 20 at the time. He took 3 of his buddies. I have a friend who goes to Indy every year and somehow managed to befriend a local who allows him to camp for the race. He has been doing this for years. He allowed my son and his friends to stay on the property but they needed to abide by his rules. He did warn them about underage drinking.

My son called me when he arrives at the camp site and he and his friends were going to street festivities. He called me to tell me he was ok and this was an experience. And then I heard him comment: OMG look at the chest on that girl!!. He hung up after that.

I'm not sure if liquor can be bought on Sundays and I would bring ear protection.


A few years ago, I toured the track and went to the museum. It is massive. A car was on the track testing tires. It was loud as it passed by us. I can only imagine the sound at race day.
