IMO this piece was just trying to shine some sort of postive light on Ivarone (after all the negative sh!t that has been said about him). I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Ivarone himself didn't reach out to ESPN by himself.
Side note- did anyone see his HUGE bodyguard in the paddock with him when they were interviewing him just as Pure Clan was being saddled?

I saw Ivarone the Friday of Travers weekend at Ciro's,he had no body guard. He was standing by himself, no one paying attention to him, didn't seem worried.......just lonely

That's not exactly fair. First of all, it's Siros, but mostly Iavarone was there many nights and he was always with friends.

However, I never saw a bodyguard there.

My point was he was by himself and at ease......no body guard, standing alone at the bar with no apparent worries..........my apology to the owners of Siros.

I must have been thrown by the lonely comment.

But I get it. You're right.....he didn't seem troubled to be in public there. And certainly nobody seemed to bother him when I was there. And, I was there a lot.
