I understand the sign as you walk in says no outside alcohol. You can bring in alcohol free soda but not alcohol free beer? I was turned away with my six pack of n/a beer and was told to put it in my vehicle. Troopers response was " Rudisell said no." Is this true Dave?

I found it, see below
Alcoholic beverage vs. non-alcoholic beverage: These beverages, e.g. Cutter's, Sharp's, etc., are not regulated as an alcoholic beverage in Indiana They are not classified as alcoholic beverages by Indiana law. The term alcoholic beverage means a liquid or solid that:
Is, or contains, one-half percent (0.5%) or more alcohol by volume
Is fit for human consumption
Is reasonably likely, or intended, to be used as a beverage. (IC 7.1-1-3-5)
So, Yes you can bring it in.
Thanks, Dave

My husband (who is a recovering alcoholic of 26 years) drinks Busch NA daily. We attend most weekend races at Lawrenceburg, sit on the back stretch and have not been turned away with NA yet. The first time the guard did a double take when going thru our cooler, but let us thru after realizing it was NA. It's a shame you didn't experience the same. I'm sure that since you've brought this up, it will be communicated to everyone. It's hard enough on those who refrain. Thanks for posting this.
