Funny Cide

Funny Cide is perfectly healthy and earns money in virtually every start. Earned $3.5 million so far I believe.
It's great they still race him.
People are constantly complaining that horses are retiring after their 3 year old season----Hard Spun and Street Sense are next-----so why do people complain that a perfectly healthy horse who is earning money is still racing?Horse racing needs more horses like Funny Cide----

Agreed...I also love the fact that he still gets bet everytime he runs. That's better for those of us that realize he can't win.

I'll stick to the Jamband and 90's Alternative Rock channel. If I want all Dead, I think I would just throw on a live show from the collection.

Anyone still have tapes of live shows, or has everyone upgraded to cd's?

I hear they are also trying to lure Zippy Chippy out of retirement.

To run against Ocho Cinco and that Restore The Roar in Ohio?

He is undefeated in these types of races...

Nice!

If I count my Phish tapes I might have half that.

Tapes are the way to go, I have tapes from the early 80's that still work fine. I hate it when a CD starts skipping
