The card room at Canterbury Park in Shakopee,Minnesota usually has alot of jockeys playing poker that are half lit up from drinking shots.Then I suppose they do have groupies on the back stretch that are grooms and such.Must be hell not to eat what you want though for 30 years.

So they do this before the races or on dark days?
Can not understand what the groom reference means to the story either.

I think it would be neat to be a jockey. I'm 6'4 though.

i feel bad for quarterhorse jocks. Those guys take some nasty falls

Yes they do. But it's not because they are 1/2 lit.
That's BS.
Maybe in the movies.
