Bengals Hall of Famer Anthony Munoz is at the Indianapolis 500 for the first time. Munoz was part of a group of Pro Football Hall of Famers who have been here since Friday as part of promotions for Phillips-Van Heusen, which includes the IZOD brand. There was a reception at the Indianapolis Museum of Art as part of a reception for the Legends of Football and Racing.

Munoz and other Hall of Famers, which included Lynn Swann and Paul Krause, then were on the grid before the race and also toured the garages.

"It's my first time her, and I'm pumped. When I first got here I was like, 'Oh my goodness, this is huge.' I'm used to 60,000- and 80,000-seat football stadiums, and this is something else. It's great that so many people can come to one place and experience an event like this."

This is also Munoz's first IndyCar race that he has seen in person.

"I'm looking forward to seeing the skill of the drivers and the speed of the cars. I'm all about speed. I mean, it's something I didn't know about as an offensive lineman, so I'm looking to see a lot of speed out here."

They showed him on the pre-race hype and he looked svelte. He obviously keeps himself in great shape. Good for him.

Thank goodness they didn't show that crooked finger, that's tough to look at.

Not much of a racing fan, but Indy 500 is a bad ass sporting event.
