I'm looking forward to seeing what color Bob Costas gets them to dye his hair.

I think the dude has a wig. Hope it doesn't blow off. As far a ESPN, maybe Hank will hold up well against the conditions.

I was gonna make a quip about putting Hank in a blimp costume and suspending him from a crane over the infield with a digital camera, but I didn't---oops, oh well.

Now that would be must-see-TV.

The wig gets blown off Costas's head and starts rolling down the stretch like a tumbleweed. At about the same time, Lookin At Lucky is about to move past Sidney's Candy at the 1/16th pole to take the lead. The wigs lands on Gomez's face and obscures his vision just long enough for Sidney's Candy to retake the lead and win by a nose. Baffert's wife goes nuts, runs down to the track, and takes out her anger on the wig. Could happen.

Or it lands on some horse's nose and they (pardon the pun) win by a hair.

Watching Bravo now. Looks like Costas has already lost his hair piece. Either that or it was a preemptive strike.

Oh wow, I think they made an announcement for all gay men at Churchill Downs to get a microphone and join in. Dunno how else to explain the people on camera. No broadcasters we're used to so far sans Costas.
