Many marched in the first championship. They have the usual afflictions of age. Bad knees hips, etc. so they’re a bit slower on the stairs and God bless them for even trying them, I have a bad knee myself and I take stairs slowly. Plus, I fell down a flight of stairs in 2020. I’ve seen older people practically knocked to the ground here by people running to get in the doors. It is disgraceful. Before my mom passed at 83, she had a very bad knee - I watched so many people push past her, drop doors in her face. It was upsetting to say the least, but VERY educational for me. I am not in Indy - was supposed to be, I had to cancel everything (and eat the tickets as I was unable to resell them) as the breeder for my puppy (waiting a year) called two weeks ago to announce that my puppy Jack was available suddenly as they had a buyer back out. So 10-week-old border terrier means NO Indy for me. Totally worth it - https://www.facebook.com/1218894192/videos/591310095784686/ 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s kind of shocking. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That pathway isn’t big enough for it to be 3-wide, but they’re making it be that way. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mathematically it can't be true every year, yet I have the distinct impression I keep reading it It's been true EVERY YEAR. The 2022 corps is composed mainly of 3 and 4 year olds lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
