It was one of the more tedious sporting events I've ever attended. This year's Belmont - you know, the Belmont where the bathrooms busticated half way through the card in 98 degree heat - was by comparison a much more enjoyable experience than was the 2006 Breeders Cup.

I guess it's just a matter of perspective.
1st floor grandstand for me... this year's Belmont I was in the comparative Taj Mahal (the Garden Terrace Dining Room)... and I'd rate the '06 BC higher.
