Jelly Roll Rumble...I chased that hanging rat more times than I care to admit.

I was there that year that D Money won the last race of the day. Was hanging out with Gander and he made a nice score on him.

One of the bad things moving to Roanoke was losing the Southwest Airlines flight to Albany out of Norfolk. Used to score cheap tickets. I just checked prices for flying out of Roanoke for opening weekend and the cheapest is $450. F that.

I remember Rondo around the Kentucky circuit. Once he went to the turf, he was short odds, run off on the lead and fade in the stretch. I think he finally won a couple of races at Indiana Downs. Some of my friends would always "throw him in my exacta and tri" since they are UK fans......don't think it ever went well.

You havent lived until you have completed a 20 hour day trip drive from No VA to the SPA and back.

If you guys leave a little early we could do a whack and track, and you could still get home by sunrise.
