Unable to read S&P500 using pandas_datareader on Google Finance

问题

Goal:

I'm trying to read historical data from Google Finance for the S&P500 using pandas_datareader.

Issue

I'm using the symbol on google finance but I keep getting the same error "unable to read url". I pretty sure I'm putting in the wrong symbol but I've tried all the options I know and I don't know what else to do. What symbol can I use with pandas_datareader to pull the historical data for the S&P 500? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
