“ The Indy 500 actually went from tape-delayed to live 40 years ago.”

Not in Indy. The race was blacked out live here until just a couple of years ago.

The blackout rule, I forget. Nationally no blackout, but there is in Indianapolis, and for a good reason to protect a live gate (which helps demand) Same rules as the NFL before Obama got in and my then-Congressman’s dóttir decided to tell the NFL no more of this protecting the live gate rules.

Banning live gate protections is a sham. Why can’t businesses protect their gate?
