how are getting to the cup??
 

what is the mode you will take....im driving......im sure some here will fly ...

I will be putting my feet up on my couch and wishing I were there.

Turn computer on and turn TV to channel 58 and I'm there.

Same here, Randall. I was supposed to go out to Texas Motor Speedway that weekend (otherwise I would have gotten BC tickets), but I'm not even going to do that...

SO, I will sit my ass on my couch and watch it on tv... :D

I am driving to Louisville with my wife on Sunday. Some friends and I who visit Louisville quite often rent a nice little apartment where we stay when we go to Louisville. My wife and I will be leaving the apartment in our car around 9am. Go to a nice little brunch at Churchill and then off to our seats to catch the races.

CHECK THIS. GPK is passing up a free ticket to the BC because he is afraid to burn the candle on both ends. I on the other hand are willing to participate in the following..

Leave Chicago-11pm
Arrive at Chuchill-5am
Breakfast - 5am
Churchill-8am to 6pm
Party because I own 25% of Churchill by the end of the day - 6pm to 10pm
Leave Churchill - 10pm
Meet friends at Soldier Field for Bears/Miami tailgating and Bears game- 8am

all he has to do is work.....BOOTLEG GUY.....

Yep, agreed... he's a first rate puss. :D

Gator I thought we were going to casselberry?

Didn't realize that was set in stone? :confused:

I'll be out at the barn until noon or 1:00 anyway... thought you were leaving earlier?

It wasnt set in stone. I was just messing but if you want to meet me up there we can watch and wager on a couple of races together.

He acts like he is married with kids. What a wuss.

Cool... :cool:

gpk taken some heat...oracle how are you getting there...???

I'm just stoked for the Ack Ack.

I'm driving to Louisville from Danville, VA bright and early on Wednesday morning...

hehe, espn's 58 back home for me when im in AH, we'll have to meetup @ AP one day next meet.

My husband and I are driving down from NJ on Thursday; we are taking it slow, so we shall arrive in Lexington where we have a hotel room on Friday. We are going to check out Louisville and Churchill on Friday, to get a feel for it.:D

thats right, comcast.

give me a shout when you're in town.

Aww the place owne N. O'Callahan

Driving Hooves, leaving Monday afternoon, gonna lay up someplace in time to watch MNF, then wake up Tuesday and drive on in. Be there Tuesday afternoon/evening.

then you pick me up at the airport

where are all of you gonna be at...looks like most will be there on fri ..say a meeting at paddock before race 5 ish...

No way would I be seen with you in public. Just make sure you don't stiff the cabbie on a tip when he drops you off at the Motel 6.

A friend gave me his place for the week. Its across from a golf course named Indian Springs in Louisville.

sounds good, I worked there last summer. May do it again if they want me back. Either way I live 5 mins from there so im always there.

nice..will you be dressing up for the cup..the ol wedding /funeral /dinner out suit....one suit..sooo many uses..lol

Dude in Kentucky Lansdon told me so long ago to dress "kentucky Casual" which means dress slacks and a shirt with a tie, or dress slacks with a sport jacket and no tie.
No suits in Lansdon's suite.

I am off on Friday, I don't have a ticket for the Cup, but if I go down, we should try to meet up...

are you driving him"landston"....lol

Driving him?

you know like you would be driving and he would be in the back...

I will be talkin to randy on the phone from MY couch and wishing I was there too...

He rented a bus on Derby day for everyone to the track and back safely with all the partying. I imagine he will do the same thing again.
He entertains a lotta business partners and friends on Derby/BC.
Hes about he greatest host anyone ever saw. Last year coming back from the Derby on the bus he paid some guy 200 bucks for a 12 pack who was walking with it when we were stopped at a red light. Guy freaked out and was like jumping up and down as everyone cheered when he handed it through the window. It was one of the funniest things I ever saw in my life.

Ateam are you going down to the BC or not?

GFY's....all of you:D

Hop, skip and a jump to Ellis Park.

Oh and a 20 minute drive their also.

me and a couple of my homie's from beulah are leaving columbus, ohio around 5am saturday, maybe 6am. driving of course, i'll be ridin shotgun in the passenger seat in style in a new chevy diesel 1 ton:D

that was pretty funny I must admit.
