Default Here is what some jocks did yesterday just to get to Minnesota

Chris Emigh facebook update: GOOD NEWS! Ride 3 today in the Claiming Crown at Cantebury! BAD NEWS! My flight got cancelled and all other flights booked full cuz of the huge storm that went thru Chicago! Now I'm racing the six hour trip to Minneapolis in my SUV!! I'LL miss the 1st one but might pick up some races late cuz I think a lot of people r... stranded all over the country
Shane Sellers and Florent Geroux sat on a plane on the tarmac delayed for only 3 hours and still went and stayed

ET Baird reserved THREE FLIGHTS just to make sure he got there (two were cancelled)

Guess Albarado just didn't need the opportunity to ride a even money shot for 12k (after he rode the horse at Arlington before so it wasn't like he didn't know the horse) and the opportunity at another 9k on Marsh Side

Crystal blue sky in both locations and plane trouble yet a deluge of rain at O'Hare, one jock drives 6 hours through weather to get up there(and its a stiff and not easy six hours because I have made the trip), and a couple others sit on a plane for hours and instead of just coming back like they were going to, they stayed.
