37 years ago is a long time so even for us that have seen this before, I think the level of satisfaction, excitement, and overall exhilaration is well beyond anything I can recall.

And that makes me think back to when horse racing was the national past time, when the entire nation would get behind one horse or two if it was East versus West, male vs. female.

Imagine going to work and everyone would be talking about the big race.

Well, for a brief moment we have this, this feeling of community and joining together witnessing greatness, witnessing history.

It feels good.
