Indiana and racing fans all over the world are gearing up for the 100th Indy 500 this weekend. Hoosier dairy farmers have a longstanding connection to the race, and they’re planning something big for this Sunday; 100,000 race fans will be part of the salute to the winner. The Indy Motor Speedway and Prairie Dairy Farms will have 100,000 pints of two percent milk they’ll distribute to fans as they come in and throughout the day. Fans will grab free milk and stick it in a cooler as they toast the winner together after the race. The bottle of milk presentation to the winning driver, owner, and chief mechanic are traditions at Indy that have been around for decades, thanks to Indiana dairy farmers.
