IRL and Kentucky Speedway get black eye
The IRL got a black eye Saturday night at Kentucky Speedway when they announced a sellout race, yet an estimated 20,000 seats were empty meaning that 20,000 people bought a ticket but didn't think it worth their while to attend the race. Because so many of those seats were free giveaways, they better think twice next time about announcing a sellout. Better to keep quiet and let the attendance be what it will, rather than brag about a sellout only to get egg on your face.
