There is an attempt <http://www.tux500.com/> on to sponsor a car
in the Indianapolis 500 with a Linux logo.  I know there are legal
problems with showing movies at WPLUG events, but is showing an
over-the-air broadcast OK?  If this sponsorship is pulled off, it
might be nice to have a viewing of the race.

The other issue is that the Indy 500 is on Memorial Day weekend
(May 27).  It might be difficult attracting people then.

If we can work around these issues, this might be a cool non-
traditional WPLUG event.  Your thoughts?
