My dad and his dad (deceased) are huge IndyCar fans. They attended the race in Milwaukee every year it existed, probably since the 60s or even earlier. I attended many MKE races since I was about 10 or so as well, though it was also the era where it wasn’t run every year. So I would call myself a casual/passive fan, but my son has been watching IndyCar with his grandpa since he was little (he’s now 10) and he’s a HUGE fan. He picked out Herta as his favorite his rookie year. Which worked out because my dad (and his dad) are huge Andretti fans. We watch pretty much every race together.

My son is such a huge fan, he recreates tracks in a marble racing video game, runs qualifying and the race and is keeping a running points total.

My son is going to be very happy, he’s a big Herta fan. We’re out of town and haven’t watched qualifying.
