Those stupid asses couldn't rent one of these for the jock room power supply for one day? Mismanaged crew there for sure...even a high school or pop warner program could have figured this solution!

Agreed....pretty frigging stupid. Most of the management and electricians must already be at the Spa.

No air conditioning in CASA FATMAN either.

Not like the jocks don't need to sweat off some pounds.

i suspect if they had these same issues on opening day they'd find a way to buck up and get through it.

Default Cancelled

more like a lack of interest....
Probably everyone is already thinking about the SPA.....Gives everyone a day jump to head north

Guess the few who showed up at the track were inconvenienced ....

The spa excuse doesn't fly. They waited until the last minute to cancel.

Next thing these jockeys will demand is heat in their rooms at the winter Big A meet.....the nerve of these guys. What the hell did they do BEFORE that rat trap of a Belmont jock room had AC?
