Here's The 'Milk List' For The 100th Running Of The Indy 500
Here's The 'Milk List' For The 100th Running Of The Indy 500-March 2024

The Indianapolis 500 doesn’t greet winners with a big bottle of champagne as most races do. They hand the winner an . This creates a curious artifact : a list of driver’s milk preferences. Who wants the whole experience? Who’d rather water it down? Behold! Here’s this year’s list.

According to American Dairy Association Indiana, 17 drivers requested whole milk this year, with two-percent being the next most popular at 13 requests. The watered-down fat-free stuff may sound a little easier to stomach after being in a hot race car, but only three drivers requested it.

Unlike , no one listed “no preference.”

The driver gets the most attention, however, a rookie milk man also delivers commemorative bottles of milk to the winning car’s chief mechanic and team owner.

Fans can even join in the tradition this year, as they’re planning the world’s largest milk toast in conjunction with the 100th running of the Indy 500. 100,000 bottles of milk will make it happen, per .

Look, even if you’re as lactose intolerant as it gets, it’s the Indy 500. You pretty much have to, and the creamer and fattier it is, the better, if you ask me. Embrace the flatulence of victory, and don’t blame it on the dog.

Jari-Matti Latvala Rolls Out Of Rally Argentina Lead Like A Bowling Ball
There’s an old Beavis and Butt-Head where the dynamic duo decides to try out a dryer’s spin cycle by climbing inside. That’s probably what it felt like inside the World Rally Championship Volkswagen of Jari-Matti Latvala and Miikka Anttila when they lost the Rally Argentina lead in a massive rollover....

This Scary Little Truck Changed Off-Road Forever And Now It's Back, Baby
Some 30 years ago, this was supposedly the first pickup truck built for off-road racing... with the engine behind the driver. Behold: the sort-of first “trophy truck”! Now it’s back in Baja, which you can watch live all week! The 1991 Nissan “T-Mag” is No. 125 in the 2016 National...

Bernie Ecclestone Thinks Donald Trump Would Make A Great U.S. President
We already knew that , but now it looks as if Formula One does as well—or, at least, head honcho Bernie Ecclestone, whose views are questionable no matter the subject. Recently, Ecclestone shared with us all that he believes Trump would make a “fantastic” U.S. president. In the latest episode...

It Took A Legendary Woman To Demolish Bernie Ecclestone's Dumb Sexist Comment
It’s almost a non-story when Formula One head troll makes an embarrassing, sexist comment lately. Unfortunately, racing legend Mario Andretti made some facepalm-worthy statements in agreement this time, too. Then three-time NHRA drag racing champion Shirley Muldowney put it all in perspective. You see, Ecclestone has become a bit like...
