Packer, you should stay at the Arlington, get a massage and a thermal bath. That it'll warm you up.

We're from Arkansas (Nashville) so we know the lay of the land. We got married in 1997 and moved to Michigan in 1999. Started going to Oaklawn when I was 16 to bet Belmont in the early days of Simulacasting. Remember when Ex. would always pay over $100? Boy those were the days. Anyway we try and get back at least once every year for Oaklawn Live Meet. I've made alot of memeories there over the years. The wifey likes the Pony's too so that helps alot. My biggest win was there in the opening weekend of 1998. Raging Sequale he paid $92 to win, exacta and Tri. I made almost 7 grand that day. My best man in my wedding and me read the form and come up with all on our own. He died in a boating accident back in the Summer of 1998 and my life has been empty without him ever since. We would always be together at the track on the weekends or after work listening to the radio replays of the races. Anyway you from the Natural State too?

Born in El Dorado. Been going to Oaklawn since 82. Made a small fortune on Sunnys halo there and in the Ken. Derby. Took forever to cash all those single tickets. Haven't missed a racing festival in 22 years.
