OK the plans are set. We are arriving into Ft Lauderale Thur 1/25 night (early enough to go out lol) and are staying within a mile of the track. We'll be there Fri, Sat, and Sunday all day. Anyone going for sure PM me and I'll give you my cell for yet another Derby Trailer's meeting.

I know it's early but we are also locked in for opening w/e at Toga.

Scavs
We'll be getting there Thur night and leaving Sun night. Got $69 each way on SW. Also was at Trackside yesterday for the first time in a long time to root on Taylor M. They rated her on purpose and she finished 3rd while going a 100 wide. I'd never use Ferrer though.

I didn't even know they ran her yesterday.

You flying out of midway to Toga?

Living 3 minutes from O'Hare means it is hard for me to fathom going to Midway, never been their actually.....I am looking at like $280 roundtrip, O'Hare to Albany

yea that's the prob with SW. Though you get delayed so often at ORD it's almost quicker in the long run.

I'd PM Cajun too -- because she's running the show for the weekend for me. We're staying on the beach (?) and will be going out at least Saturday night, but should be in town early enough Friday night to grab a few beers too.

Can't wait to meet a few people and get my first taste of live Florida racing!

Any idea of how many people total are going to be meeting up?

Oracle will definately be there. As most likely A-Team and maybe they can let him be at the main stand this year.

Wow, this sounds like an awesome first weekend in Toga. I'll bring a bottle of Patron so we can have some midday tequila shots at the track. Totally serious.

Yeah, we might need to hire a paramedic for too much pork digestion and yelling at Hooves, and OF COURSE, making fun of GPK
