Race fans surprise Lauren Lowrey with baby gift

SPEEDWAY, Ind. (WISH) — The Indianapolis 500 is full of surprises and this year was no exception when long time race fans gave 24-Hour News 8’s Lauren Lowrey a baby gift.

Lowrey has been reporting from the Speedway Monogramming location for the past few years, so she has seen and interviewed the same group of people every year.

Tim Cook, the so called patriarch of the group, buys a spot every year and he says it’s truly a family affair.

During the annual interview Cook surprised Lowrey with a special gift. The gift included several items for the anticipated bundle of joy.

Lowrey said it was so sweet and kind.

Earlier in May Lowrey announced that she and her husband are expecting their first child.
