World 100 Party or lack of it?

[fryefan]

I have been going to the World 100 for the last 6 years and it used to be a great exciting party, I stay in the Speedy campgrounds and the party has been non-existent the last 3 years, its like staying at a senior citizens campgrounds. Is the party still going on at Eldora or am I staying in the wrong camping area? If I am in the wrong area where do I need to be for the party and the ladies?? Fellow race fans please chime in!

You should stay home and go to a local bar and leave the racing for the real fans.

It's one thing to party and chase women, it's a whole other deal to get slobberin', hollerin', stupid drunk and become a public nuisance and an inconsiderate, disrespectful a$$hole. Age has nothing to do with it. An a$$hole is an a$$hole, young, middle aged or old.

You hit the nail squarely on the head.

It only takes one person to ruin it for everyone else.

The popo put the hammer on the party life several years ago. Some one got hit on the highway a few years ago, and ever since then, they shut down the party life early now. I think an hour or 2 after the race is over. They got a name for it but I forget it now.

This is coming from a guy that hasn't even cracked a can of beer or bottle open at Eldora. A part of me misses it, and a part of me don't. I miss the parties for obiouvs reasons (.)(.)

I was there when that person got hit. An eery sound.
Haven't been out for about four years. Just decided that we were driving too far and passing up on race specials closer to home. But I hitched a ride with some friends this year. Instrested to see what changed.
Far as partying goes, I think the take over from Earl to Tony changed more than just the track.

And to the OP, the party is where you make it!

I know I was there in 1999 but I don't ever remember Steve Francis winning The World 100???? When Bloomer got the flat tire in 1998, is that when the tire came completely off the rim and shot up in the air? Trying to remember this stuff.

We still have a pretty good turn out of drivers and fans in our campsite on Friday night. Cops don't say much to us.

I don't think it was that year. That was the year Steve unloaded the car, and didn't have the stops down on the ramp.THUD.....it hit the ground. Luckily it didn't bend anything up but the rear bumper, and some metal. I'm thinking he pretty much led it flag to flag. That was a very good year for Steve.

We had just left the grandstands following the Indy 500 in May of 2016. An Indiana State Trooper was controlling pedestrian and auto traffic at an intersection near The Speedway. One of these idiots with a belly full of liquid smartass/courage disobeyed the Trooper and crossed the street stepping between two buses in the process. It took the Trooper right at 3 seconds to get the drunken smartass face down on the sidewalk and cuffed. The Trooper got an ovation from the crowd that was waiting to cross the street. He told the drunken smartass to set on the grass berm and stay put 'till another Trooper came to get him. At that point the drunken smartass was more than ready to comply and at the same time he had tears welling up in his eyes. That Trooper took all the badass out of the drunken smartass in just 3 seconds! We asked the Trooper what that little foray was going to cost the drunken smartass. The Trooper said about 6 hours of his time and around $100. LOLOL!!

Moral of the story is this, if drunken smartasses were universally dealt with is such a way most all public events would be far more enjoyable for everyone and much less costly and painful for the drunken smartasses.

Some folks are smartasses way before they drink. Unfortunately you can't stop them from drinking and then have to be delt with. Great job to the men and women in uniform who ruin there fun!!!

[Illtsate32]

CIRF why are you so triggered by people who have a few too many...you must have been directly effected by it...yes they are ignorant but they make it less enjoyable for you?? Dang man you see someone acting ignorant you say look at that idiot and go back to enjoying the race..dont know why you are so hung up on it....

[Illtsate32]

You talk like its an epidemic...never been to the world but I went to the dream last year and I didnt see anything like what you are talking about...
