Police vehicles line the track at Indianapolis Motor Speedway Thursday, April 16, 2020, before the funeral of slain Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department Officer Breann Leath. There are more than 300 acres inside the gates of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, enough room to fit Vatican City, Yankee Stadium, The White House, Liberty Island, the Taj Majal, Roman Colosseum, Churchill Downs and the Rose Bowl. All at the same time. So if there's a facility that can safely host 135,000 fans during a pandemic, it would be Indianapolis. The speedway has been approved to host 40% its capacity for the Indy 500 next month, which will make it the largest sporting event since the start of the pandemic. (The Indianapolis Star via AP)
