i think it's a good think for the Preakness. the infield had turned into a drunken party instead of being about horse racing.
with seeing this result maybe more people that care about horse racing will come back to the Preakness.

the kick in the nuts about this whole thing is, ok sure charge the infield 3.50 a beer awesome. But why charge people who paid more for the tickets in the grandstand more? $5 for a 16 oz. was the cheapest i found and $8 for a BES. i sure as hell didn't see the 3.50 beer man in my section
