Indy 500 question

Wingman · 5/12/16, 4:55 PM

Anybody ever had Flag room tickets? I know they are below tower terrace grandstand. I know it has climate control but is their seats outside to watch the race? Sorry if this seems like a stupid question. I am not 100% sure if I know where below the tower terrace grandstand means.

I thought the Flag Room was in Brickyard Crossing next door to the Speedway

Flag Room was the bar room at the old Speedway Motel. Not sure what would be BELOW tower terrace stands.

I have looked all over the map. I can't figure it out. My company was able to get me corporate tickets including bus with police escort etc maybe that is a meeting room of some sort. I have been to the 500 probably 10-15 times. For the life of me can't figure out the flag room. I guess I figure it out when tickets are in hand. Thanks for trying guys!

I think they are ground level suites between pitlane suites & garages.

I think we had a banquet there one time, it was part of the old motel best I remember, it was kind of an unusual place, it was a tube frame, covered with that cloth they use on semi trailers, with carpet on the asphalt, it was at the crossing, but it's surely gone now, can't imagine where you might be.
