Bush Stadium, built in 1931, was home of minor league baseball's Indianapolis Indians for many years, as well as the Indianapolis Clowns of the Negro Leagues.  It was also the location where parts of the film "Eight Men Out" were shot.  During the 1996 season, the Indians moved to a new downtown ballpark, and Bush Stadium was converted to an auto race track.  This was not successful, and for the better part of the last decade, the ballpark has sat vacant and decaying.
