I was wondering, and this question is for people who were into the game 30 years ago, about the first Breeders Cup.
I've read about it and all but what I'm interested in are personal accounts.
When was the first time you heard about the idea for it? What did you think? As it started coming together did you care? Were you excited?
Did it get press? Did you think it would be a one time event?
I'm not asking about the actual races or how profitable a day you had but what were your thoughts leading up to it?
Thanks!
