Personally I like the Seabiscuit mug/cup/planter. This is the one that gets my vote.

These are all so perfectly awful they
are beautiful. Beautiful in a pitiful way.

Its a shopping list for a visit to BALCO.

Clocks at Saratoga. The 2" by 12" by 16" cardboard boxes made it look like all the spinning Albanians that showed up were carrying around a half dozen packaged toilet seats.

You must have meant to post that in the 'Best promo give away' thread.

Has Elmer's sponsored a "Glue Giveaway Day" yet?

Okay, that one beats the Santa Anita Jock(s) garbage can, which I always thought was the worst.

Ho-ly crap.

i think they should have included a bobblehead of his lawyer.

A couple of years ago, Canterbury gave away track announcer Paul Allen bobble heads.

That's no worse than many examples some can give, but when I was walking in I saw someone walking out with about a dozen--which means he paid for about a dozen admissions to get them.

Very useful for eating a whole packet of cereal :)

I waiting for the Tom Durkin "Bobble Belly"

The Pegram plate is the worst. No wonder one of them sits in the entrance hall of my condo building in Saratoga-who would want to knick that.

Actually the overall quality of the giveaways went down the drain last year. Friends showed me an Arlington lawnchair and the Saratoga one sucked and could barely take my weight.

The previous Saratoga umbrellas which lasted 3 months of London rain-the 07 ones collapse after 1-2 uses

Was NYRA the 1st to do giveaways? I got the distinct impression last year from someone fairly high-up that they'd wished they'd never started doing them

i blew up my jerry bailey bobble head with an m 80...

i want a bobblehead of jerry 'running' back to the booth at oaklawn yesterday....
