Funny thing is, as many times as I've been to the Arkansas Derby, I've never seen that either. The only explanation I have for that fact is that I usually leave right after the Derby because of the crush of 50K + fans trying to get out of the track all at the same time. I like the racing on Derby Day, but it can be pretty uncomfortable with all the people there and even worse when it rains and drives everyone inside. I haven't been in recent years, it might be a lot better because of the ability to bet on your devices. I was a popular guy last year. My daughter was out there and calling me for picks and sharing them with people around her. I think they were a bunch of first timers at the track and it sounded like first time race players. I did ok that day and was glad to help, but was thankful I didn't give them a bunch of losers.
