Where are you watching the Derby?

Detroit. Red Wings hockey at 2pm, then Chris Chelios' bar after the game for the race.

lol. Daughter called a couple days ago having scored tix. I'll go where she takes me, though I hope to take my pregame meal at Lafayette or American.

I will go to the OTB place some bets on the entire day. Go home and watch for quick results on Equibase and slowly toss each ticket in the trash.

The amount of clueless rude people on Derby Day is infinite. Just another opportunity for them to be drunk and stupid. Not to mention the ones that are betting on the Derby for 50 people throughout the day. That's just the way it is so I choose to avoid it at all costs.

Sometimes I go over to someone else's and watch the Derby but normally I prefer to yell at my TV.

Ditto for me, except for hopefully NOT that last part!


And I'll add that I'll be DVD'ing the whole deal with a backup VHS (those 1st generation DVD burners were so finnicky) for later viewing.

Time and time again.

I have almost every Derby Day telecast since Ferdinand. I'll probably do a select marathon tonight to get the blood flowing (even more).
