Incredible, classic case of someone not realizing that they are the problem.

Couldn't agree more Nick. There has been some masterful troll posts on here lately.

There are horrible Trolls here and I never realized what one was until I came here.

NYRA has been awful in recent years when a TC is on the line. None of you were there, I can tell that. Imagine your mother or grandmother peeing on a bush because they closed the bathrooms. I saw the shame on that woman's face.

I don't have to worry about that this year because they won't get that crowd.

Clearly, you are the troll here or you are just plain stupid, based upon these and prior posts as remarkable as it may be, I am leaning towards the latter.

You took an opportunity to bash NYRA for the way they conduct the Belmont Stakes while at the same time telling us you are going anyway. You are just another NYRA basher who refuses to consider the facts.

Has Belmont Stakes day had its problems? Absolutely, but NYRA has taken a significant number of steps to improve the experience which you want to ignore. They spent millions upgrading the LIRR platform for this year and worked with the LIRR to significantly increase the number of trains. They have also capped the number of people who they let in to better manage the crowds.

The Granny peeing in the bush? She could not use one of the 50 or so porta potties they have in the back of the park? If you want to talk about the one real aspect where they deserve criticism it is the ushers allowing people without tickets to steal seats from people who purchased them, that is where they have to do something.

I also love the swipe you have taken at AP suggesting he won't win the Preakness which now just about locks it up for him.

However, the BS you have thrown out here is nonsense. If you don't like it, here is a wild suggestion doucebag, don't go.

This is a board where those who are informed won't let trolls like you throw out nonsense to those who are new to the game. Feel free to go to one of the number of boards where people like you can get away with your nonsense, it won't happen here.

I've gone up for Secreteriat, Affirmed and Seattle Slew and all the chances in between. I go to the races. Criticism is unwarranted here.

Good for you. Here is a wild suggestion, if you don't like the county, cops or how NYRA handles Belmont day then don't go. I guarantee you, you will not be missed.

I didn't say anything about American Pharoah.

Hope the venting worked well for you. And the name-calling. Maybe made your day, in a small way.

That is what I am talking about.

Have some respect for an organization that you are unfairly bashing.

Won't get the crowd of old ladies or seniors. They had such a bad experience. I'm the oldest person I know who is going to go.

Been there many times in recent years when things have gone wrong. I'll never forget the line of women snaking its way through the men's room to appropriate all the stalls, while guys pissed at the urinals all around. And I was there last year when they ran out of food. But aren't all those things part of its charm? I mean, we're not wimpy tennis fans for gosh sake. We're horse racing fans, assailed on all sides. Suck it up.
