This is a major sporting event that will attract just about every casual fan in the tri-state area. Racing may be declining in prominence, but the attendance figures don't support that, as the TC races and Breeders' Cup perenially get huge crowds. I'd be shocked if there weren't at least 115,000 people (if weather cooperates). 103,000 showed up in the pouring rain for Funny Cide, way more than there should've been.

Shoot, they stopped letting people bring beer into the grandstand/clubhouse of the Preakness, and that hasn't caused attendance to dip. I think people come to see a potential Triple Crown winner, bringing in one's own beer is secondary.
