Indy 500 '08'

[gtjoey]

Well, the race has gotten so pathetic, not even enough cars to fill the field, so if anyone calls the ritz at indy you can get tickets, box tickets and rooms , ALL ARE AVAILABLE. Before the indy racing league, that hotel had a 20 YEAR WAITING LIST, TICKETS WERE WILLED TO NEXT OF KIN. Hopefully this disaster will end after this year,my state friends already tell me since 2 years ago the revenue is off by 70% total for the whole month:eek . I might buy my original penthouse tickets that we gave up after 75 years, now that we are buyng on the low, if not they will look great as memorabilia as the last tickets to see the greatest spectacle in racing:ack in the gt museum.:thumbsup Sad we had a great time last year, but the fire is definetly out! Now that dale jr. wins every race:bored hmmm howd that happen? and toyota's are all top contenders after being the 1# sponsor, hmm howd that happen:bored? THAT FREAK WRESTLING SHOW ISNT TOO FAR BEHIND!! ENJOY GTJOEY 1314:thumbsup

Bernie should take over.

His soft drink sales would beat whole take of this nonsense

I'm afraid it will be a long time, if ever, before the Indy 500 returns to the good ol' glory days. Very sad state of affairs. :frown:thumbsdow

The downtown ritz has been calling EVERY week! gt maybe you want to come, ect. I love there hospitality but off the record they all admit its a joke. :thumbsdow Just think of the logic , we get thrown out the front of the hotel:biggrin after honda says they paid for front exposer:eek , we move 10 gt's out of the way for a honda minivan!!!:eek Jeff will attest, when the gt's were out front people were hanging out windows from the hotel taking pictures, once we were put back in our basement apt. :biggrin it was dead....
NO CORP. KNOW HOW, JUST OVER THINKING DUMMIES:thumbsdow ITS SOOOO EASY JUST CALL GTJOEY/DBK AND ALL WILL BE ALRIGHT:biggrin GTJOEY 1314

I think Joey means the Marriot. That's where we all stayed last year.
