Was at a wedding day Funny Cide won Preakness... My wife's grandmother was adamant that we head to OTB to place a win bet on him between wedding and reception. Great times. Now if it was just me who wanted to place the bet, wife would have been peeved to say the least but here 78 year old grandmother, well that was different. Had a few manhattans, placed the bet and the rest is history
