The Indianapolis 500, billed as "The Greatest Spectacle in Racing", is one of the oldest and richest motorsport events. The Indianapolis Motor Speedway complex was built in 1909 as a gravel-and-tar track and hosted a smattering of small events before the promoters decided to focus on just one major event. The creation of a 500 mile race allowed the track to rapidly acquire a privileged status for automobile races. The first "500" was held at the Speedway on Memorial Day, May 30, 1911. Today, fan participation, including attendance and radio and television audiences, combine to make it one of the most celebrated single-day sporting events worldwide. Each ticket stub has been authenticated and encapsulated by PSA. The entire contents of this run can be viewed online.
