My nephew lives in Richmond KY and for years got 4 reserved seats for the derby...would ask me every year if i wanted to go but begged off, didn't want to fight the crowds just to say i had been to the derby.. I prefered the otb or puter and tv..He would call me from the track and ask who i liked..after a few years of laying stiffs on him he doesn't call anymore
