2022 is the 76th anniversary of the track “(Again Dwelling Once more in) Indiana,” being carried out as a part of the pre-race ceremony on the Indy 500.

An estimated 300,000 folks packed the stands Sunday to observe the 106th working of the Indianapolis 500 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway — the biggest crowd of spectators because the COVID-19 pandemic shriveled attendance the previous two years.

Cornelison’s sixth flip at singing “(Again Dwelling Once more in) Indiana” is the longest consecutive streak for a vocalist aside from Jim Nabors, who carried out the track 36 occasions between 1972 and 2014.

Cornelison was accompanied by the Purdue “All-American” Marching Band, which had been taking part in on the race since 1919.
