Can't ask for everything, it was real hilarious that he got nosed, I felt his pain

Anyone see the preview for Entourage? Looks like next week will show a lot of footage from either Santa Anita or Del Mar, not sure which track they were at.

I heard Santa Anita, but I could be wrong

Halfway between Rochester and Buffalo. Only two things to do in Batavia go to Batavia Downs and/or watch the Batavia Muckdogs (single A farm team for the Cardinals).

Was there twice...two years ago, stop there on the way to Ozzfest @ Darien Lake
& a few years before that after a day at the "Flakes" (Finger that is!).
Went to the Best Western that evening...it was karaoke night, had one of the worst hangovers the next day.
My buddies convinced me a trip back to the track would cure that...it did!
