It's only fitting that Michigan State received an Indy Car escort from the airport to downtown Indianapolis Wednesday when they arrived for the Final Four.
What other way is there to be escorted to the Final Four when you are in Indy?
Michigan State Basketball tweeted out a few photos and AD Mark Hollis was part of the escort team.

Michigan State wasn't the only team that got the Indy car escort. Duke, Wisconsin and Kentucky all got the treatment as well.
