2004 Breeder's Cup for sure. I spent 3-4 hours the night before handicapping the Pick 6. I'm not a big money player so I came up with a ticket somewhere around $150. My roomate and I were going to split the cost and share the ticket. Living in Lexington we were going to Keeneland the next day to meet friends, place the wager, and watch the races. The night before we went out and I for some reason tried to break the world record for most Red Bull and Vodkas consumed in one night. We got in around 5 AM and needless to say didn't wake up in time to place the wager. Long story short.... I had 5 of 6 which WOULD have paid 56,000+. The only horse I missed was Wilko which I actually helped foal and raise. I thought $7.50 for the Red Bull and Vodka was expensive, little did I know a whole night of them would cost 56K.
