Default First Time

Lets talk about our first bet ever, age and results

My friend and uncle used to frequent Liberty Bell in Philly so I began following in the paper. Gave him a 2.00 bet on a horse named Vinegar nearly 40 years ago when I was 8. Redboard the horse won and I forgot what he paid.... Flash forward about 15 years and I worked in New York at WTC Tower 2 and used to collect 5 bucks from my coworkers each Thursday and take a walk to OTB to place a bet. If we won it was blown on lunch at Luna's on Friday and the remainder Friday night at Jermey's. Hit a horse named Carjack a couple times... I Used to simply look for horses winning last time out at the highest odds...
