The story of Luck
Indiana's ghost towns are canal towns, coal camps, and railroad stops the interstates finished off.
Andrew Austen Luck (born September 12, 1989) is an American football executive and former professional quarterback who is the general manager of the Stanford Cardinal. He previously played in the National Football League (NFL) for seven seasons with the Indianapolis Colts. Considered one of the best draft prospects during his college football career with Stanford, Luck won the Maxwell, Walter Camp, and Johnny Unitas Golden Arm awards in 2011. He was selected by the Colts first overall in the 2012 NFL draft.
What you'll find today
The on-the-ground condition of Luck is unverified — it's listed here with unknown status. That could mean standing buildings, or an empty field. Go prepared for either, and consider sharing what you find so the record improves.
Nobody has confirmed the access situation, so treat any visit as reconnaissance: verify land ownership first, and be ready to admire from the road.
Getting there
Here's the honest truth: access to Luck is unverified. We couldn't confirm whether the site sits on public land, private property, or something in between — so verify land ownership and local rules before visiting, and respect private property at all times.
Good to know
Ghost-town etiquette is simple: take only photographs. Removing artifacts is illegal on public lands and disrespectful everywhere else — and on federal land it can be a serious offense.
