I would like to preface this post by saying that any and all trips I have made to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway have involved police escorts and sitting in one of the more luxurious skyboxes. They also have involved meeting hot French guys who made sure I had plenty of sunblock and bellinis. I also would like to point out that “any and all” visits mean “one visit.”
But basically, I’m an Indiana girl who has been out here for about five years and is venturing to Gold Cup for the first time in a few weeks. I already have my dress and shoes, and have decided that maybe I don’t need a sun hat, because that’s not really “me.”
My only Gold Cup experiences thus far consist of reading The Washingtonian and various DC Blogs. I’m still not quite sure, exactly, what to expect, but it should be fun. After all, I am taking a flask. But I have to admit there are some things about NoVa/DC living that I just don’t GET, and this may well be one of them.
Any Gold Cup veterans out there?
