Default Crazy ?

Can sumwon in the Chi-town gang give me an indication of how crazy it will be there on Preakness Day. I want to make the drive up from No. KY. but am wondering if it will be nuts getting parked and shoulder to shoulder around the grounds. Made the trip to watch Sumwon last July ( it was a Wed. I think ) and it was really a fun day. Not crowded at all, and no problems getting in and out of the track. Our local track is a zoo on TC days. Jazzy might be sittin' a Big One!!!

um...unfortunately you won't have a problem with "shoulder to shoulder"

Hopefully a few more than the Sumwon race on Wed, but Polytrack and Cat/Cal winning every race keeping the crowds down

Dude, you are all good, no issues at all. Will be abnormal large crowd but it isn't a big deal. It isn't the Million which is kinda nuts but even that is ok. To give you an example, I never have an issue getting a bet in and I am at the teller every 5 minutes
