I loved that place. Omaha was such a great horse racing city.

Vic,
Made one trip to Aksarben when I was living in Kansas City. Must have been in 1985... My pal Phil and I drove up, did great at the windows and then went to Johnny's in the Yards for steaks.. A fabulous afternoon that always generates fond recollections of Omaha.
