Al Jr one of my favorites too!

I’ve listed to a few podcasts with Uncle Bobby telling old stories. He was something else. RIP.

A really amazing Family, Bobby, Al and Jr.

Bobby won Indy three times, that in itself is an amazing feat. Some guys spend a lifetime trying to win and many have died trying.

Between Al, Bobby and Al Junior they won Indy 9 times. Jerry Unser died at Indy during a time trial run. He served with my Father-in-Law in the Navy at Pearl Harbor during WW2.
