    Other than Opie not one SBR poster would fit in at the Kentucky Derby

    All sharps snobs there
    Most of us at SBR all slobs and would stick out like a sore thumb.

    I think JJ if he loses 100 lbs he can be a great jockey.

    I went several years ago. It's quite a scene.

    A friend of a friend used to be a jockey, and actually ran in the derby once. He got us in to all the cool parties and whatnot.
    It was the year Big Brown one. I think it was '08.

    Very cool thing to mark off your bucket list.

    I think the Travers would be very cool. Not sure I'd rank it above the derby.

    I went to the Breeders Cup when it was here at Lone Star Park. That's a serious event.

    Some of the Good Doctor's best writing was done while not fitting into the kentucky derby.

    Opie needs to smoke some Purple Diesel buds.

    The race? Maybe not

    But as for Saratoga absolutely

    Plenty of drinking opportunities in Saratoga but there's no infield attendance so the frat boy retard contingent is nil

    Been a few times. It really is awesome. Never been to Arlington park for millionaire race but haven't been to anything like derby. Such a clash of classes between infield and paddock.

    I wish there was a an expansion of the triple crown with a california or florida track , very little chance of rain and sloppy courses at Santa Anita but the Kentucky derby is still the greatest race in the world. Louisville during derby week is unforgettable, but you are right, the infield at kentucky oaks and derby days is really a mess.

    Opie could drop some names. He's lived a life the rest of us can only dream of.
