I even got to go one year.

That was a pretty good race, and I don't usually watch. Wish I'd had money on the winner.

I think they should barbecue the loser, afterwards.

The dead-last loser, I mean.  Sorry I wasn't more clear.  I mean, really, the horse that ends up dead last is most likely getting shot, anyway.  Might as well make tasty snacks out of him.

how about that shit?

I don't want the shit; you can have it.  Although, I'm sure it would do wonders for your roses.

yeah man, except they don't shoot horses anymore, they go with lethal injection.  and they don't do that when they lose, only when they get seriously hurt.  and most horses in this race cost hundreds of thousands of dollars and up...   but yeah, good point!!

You're wound kinda tight, aren't you?  We all know it would never happen; I'm just saying, "perfect excuse for a barbecue."

I saw the race while I had dinner in a local Mex restaurant - no sound.

Amazing how when he started to move up all the rest of the field look as if bolted to the track.  Hell of a run. [thumbsup]

Been sitting at the local track all evening celebrating. I had 3 win tickets. 2 of them were for $10 and one was a $50 to win. Guess which one I put $50 to win?  ;D I hit a jackpot on a quarter machine earlier in the casino and met my dad at his table. He goes, "You gonna put anything on the derby?" I said, hell I suppose...what are the worst 3 horses. I will bet on all 3 of them to win. He laughed, called me an idiot and then called the guy over so I could make my bets. As the race was coming into the stretch, he told me that I was buying him the prime rib for dinner. Hehe.

Needless to say, after tonight, I don't feel at all guilty about buying the trackbike and depleting a good chunk of my savings to do it...I just put it all back in, ate Prime Rib for dinner and still ended up quite a bit ahead.  [drink]
