Ah, they actually have electronic signs now in many cars telling you the next stop that is coming. TO be fair though, DC Metro conductors are WAY more understandable than the folks in New York.

I'm looking forward to going to MD Million Day also. It's always a fun day at the races and you can usually get a nice price or two somewhere along the line, if you are sharp enough to find them. I usually am not, so as long as the beer they serve stays cold, I still have a good time.......

Laurel never skimps on the sales on beer either. I've had more than my fair share of Woodford on the rocks, poured healthily, for $3 or less.

They have a couple of days towards the end of the meet where they're clearly trying to get rid of their booze, and every drink is like $2 or $3, including Woodford in regular sized Solo cups. Look it up on their website, I'm positive they have one in April right before PImlico opens and one sometime in November.

Thanks!!!

I've also heard that you can get a wider variety of beer on the tarmac outside the clubhouse at the end closest to the paddock. Rumor has it it's leftovers from events, parties, etc. I've seen the cart out there but never wandered away from the clubhouse bar long enough to test the waters..... I will on Saturday!!

I also heard recently that they've been having a raw bar on the weekends.

Yes, definitely a raw bar on weekends, though I don't know how much I trust oysters sold at Laurel. Anywho, they also have the Miller Lite girls on weekends on occasions. Schwing!
