You watch, tomorrow there will be brawls for a post position Arlington Million shirt in the East Paddock.....
It's not just the racetrack. I work on the floor of the stock exchange and new companies that listed used to give away things (hats, coffee mugs, T-shirts etc...). Now we are talking about people that are very far from being on welfare (well not these days) and the way that they would grab and go after these things would make you head spin. And it's not like they were taking one, grabbing them by the handful. It was absolutley comical.
