Well...so much for me coming. If your going, I'm staying home.

U can GFY

Just checked $282 RT non-stop from Chicago on beautiful SW

That's all nice and everything, but you going to show at AP this year?
:D

LOL yea planning on opening w/e barring a trip to the derby.

I am going to be at Saratoga (for the 1st time) from opening day thru Saturday and I am basically as excited about it as I've ever been.

NT

For the same price why don't we rent a short school bus instead, swing by Trackside and stuff as many of the mutants into it as it can possibly hold, then take the 17-hr. road trip to Saratoga with Beer Belly driving , Bill Downes as navigator, Broke Bill, "Lips", Aquino, John Frank, John Marzec's ghost and and as many of the other all-stars as can be enticed by the offer of free cases of Old Milwaukee, a half dozen boxes of Ripple in a box and as many "Slim Jim's' as they want. We'll fly "just to be safe" but we'll be there to greet the lads when they arrive, providing those dumb bastards don't miss the Albany exit and keep driving to Maine.

Can you imagine the odors wafting out of that bus once it arrives at the front gate. That load of sugar plums nestled at the bottom of Downes' diaper would be positively lethal.......

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.5

Classic stuff, B! :D

:tro: you don't post enough!:)

It is warranted excited, there is not many better things then being able to walk into a racetrack with cases of beer, sit under a bunch of trees around a bunch of people bs'ing, handicapping, gambling and eating BBQ.

T minus 120 days, but who's counting. :D

Anyone know if they're going to sell tickets in Ticketmaster again?

Have they mailed out tickets to lottery winners and season ticket holders yet?

I got mine about 2 weeks ago....
