Hate to interject in all of the folks with the romantic tales about growing up loving the game and the animals, but I'm a borderline degenerate gambler by nature. That's what piqued my initial interest anyway.
Then in 1991, I went to my first KY Derby the day after my last final exam in college. We went for the party and the gambling, but I definately changed my perspective that day. Been to 19 straight since and next year will be 20.
Now, I do follow the game weekly, if not daily, and I've read 50 or so books on the history of the sport.
