Here you go..Winner's Drink of Milk Three-time "500" winner Louis Meyer regularly drank buttermilk on a hot day, as his mother had told him it would refresh him, and he consumed some in Victory Lane as a matter of course after earning his third "500" victory in 1936. A dairy industry executive happened to see a photograph of this in the following day's newspaper and, believing it to be regular milk, vowed to make sure this would be repeated in the coming years. Milk was part of the Victory Lane ceremony between 1937 and 1941 and then again in 1946, the first year after World War II, but disappeared between 1947 and 1955. The tradition was revived in 1956 and continues to this day.

 Give me a break Danica Patrick.
Give me a break, like Danica Patrick is the only driver to have bad luck?? So she storms down pit row to confront Briscoe?? Too much press is wasted on her and her driving skills. I think her true colors showed thru today....

Other drivers had bad luck also...but would you rather watch Danica pull Ryan out of the car, or watch Sarah cry ?  Maybe it is just me, but I have more time for Danica's 'posture'.
