Churchill visit
 
I am taking a road trip with 3 buddies to Churchill Downs soon for Friday night racing. This will be my first trip there and my buddies are not huge racing fans. Does anyone have any advice to make this trip as enjoyable as possible for them? General Admission vs Clubhouse seats?

If they are not into racing and just going for the party, I would go general admission.

If they hate baseball...try to squeeze in a Reds game.

Also..if they dislike Italian food, try eating at an Italian restaurant.



Thanks for posting this---it is in keeping with the high level of methane-gas-in-the-brain for which this time honored stupid room is known.

I suppose I have "methane gas in the brain" for wanting to give my friends, who are new to the racetrack, the best possible experience and maybe even recruit three new racing fans. Maybe we should just stay home. Racing doesn't need new fans. Racing just needs more cynics like yourself. Well done.

..uh...did I say I was bringing bowling buddies to the race track ...the horsey races they do not like?......do you enjoy sticking pins in your finger tips because of the extreme pain?....



Don't try to sanitize the crime scene,Mr.Dyslexia.

You're wanting to give them the best possible experience and asking for strangers on an internet message board to decide if clubhouse or general admission is better.

Jesustapdancingchrist, son. I advise you to learn how to breathe through your nose for once and then teach them what you've learned.
