anyone here ever attend the Derby? I've been to the Belmont a bunch of times and been to Louisville and was just wondering how difficult it is to get around before and after the race if you go.
Been to 6 or 7 Derbys. A great time in that infield.
Take me piece by piece..... Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
ha, bet on bovada, which sucks. That said, the entire system on there sucked. Had 13 to win (enough to hedge all my bets), then Did 5 and 12 to show. So it was basically a trifecta box but 13 had to win, so I think the odds very slightly better than a trifecta box
it was like the lowest exacta and trifecta payout for the Derby in a long time. the top 3 favorites came in so not gonna make much anyway. Derby is usually good for a great exacta and trifecta pay out.
Favorites have one a few straight years now. Which blows! But what can you do? You win some, you lose some. And you are absolutely correct, when the favorite is out of the money at the Derby, which happens more times than not, there is LOTS of money to be made, Sadly, the last few years have not gone that way.

what is it like getting out of there and do you usually have to stay a long way from Louisville?

We always took an RV, and parked directly next to Churchill Downs. I am sure if you are looking to book a hotel, you would gave to do it a few months in advance. I would think.

Threw action down on suddenbreakingnews across the board. Exacta box on the 11 and 13. Also bet the 5 and 11 to win. I don't know dick about horse racing so hopefully I get lucky.
So what exactly did you win? Since YOU HAD EVERY HORSE!!!!!
Damn I was happy for you!

Ended up winning a few hundred and also shattered my phone in drunkenness, so I pretty much got a free night out and a fixed phone...
Hahahaha!
You were funny Saturday!
I won!! I lost!! I didn't win shit!!
Oh wait, I won!!!
Hahahahahahahahaha!!!!
haha, yeah, that was pretty much the story of my evening in general, I think.
Note to self, an afternoon of mint juleps on an empty stomach is a not a great idea.
There was a Derby day in Kentucky, where EARLY in the day I won a $2,000 tri. The young lady selling juleps walks by, as we are in the infield, and asks if I would like one. 5 minutes later I bought her entire tray of juleps, and the thing she was wearing to carry the juleps. I bought it all and put the tray around my neck. My buddies were fucking ROARING!!!

Haha, yeah I definitely spread out the action on quite a few horses. The exacta box paid out just over 15 to 1 and I had $20 on it so that paid a little bit over 300. Ended the day up around $200. A very good day!

I wish I was sitting next to you on Saturday, because you and I would have hit a nice trifecta! You had all 3 horses!!!
Nice job my friend!

That is awesome and sounds like a hell of a time
One year I am in that infield for the Derby, and myself and the 5 guys I am with, ALL have our money on a horse named Thundergulch, to win the Derby. The horse won at 20-1 odds!
That Saturday night in Louisville was, and still is, just a blur.
Hahahahahahaha

Yes, I made myself laugh with each.
A great time in that infield.

I was extremely drunk. Mint juleps on an empty stomach is probably not the best idea.
