My wife and I both went to IU Bloomington. Great memories from there of the Little 500 and basketball games. I’m still a huge IU basketball fan (hence my username).
We’ve lived in NYC for the last 15 years, and one of the coolest Little-500 memories actually happened here in Bryant Park. In the summers they have movies on a big screen outdoor in Bryant Park. It gets insanely crowded with people on blankets and partying.
Breaking Away was showing several years ago and we HAD to go see it. Was pretty great at the end of the movie to have the entire park cheering and singing along to the IU fight song.
