I think the vacation started at the 16th pole in the Derby, and boy am I glad it did - cause I didn't use Paddy O'Prado second...

It's silly to insinuate he didn't ride Paddy O'Prado out to the wire. It's simply not true.

That was awesome. Kent must have had a couple too many "Red Stripe" beers...

It is totally acceptable with Kent on vacation that he might have a few cocktails. However, it sounds like he is drowning his sorrows from this past weekend. It was embarassing. But entertaining.

I was waiting for him to tell us that Paddy was the best horse he's ever ridden. It was coming.

*snort* Well in fairness, he was hammered. He probably would've, or maybe he did and we didn't understand it.

Loved when it came up during ATR today. This thread got a shoutout. I'm not gonna go hatin' on his ride or his good time. I'll just enjoy the amusement it afforded me. Cheers, Kent.

I heard he met up with Tiger Woods later. What the heck, they are both single now.

Good to know...thanks for the heads up.

Haven't been to Bermuda yet (sorry Steve), but have had Red Stripe in Jamaica and Kalik in the Bahamas.

Andy - I agree with what you say here quite often...but that goggles pull and the "whoa, someone-is-coming-on-the-outside head turn" give me a different impression. In the end, I'm just glad it helped my tickets instead of hurting them.

He couldn't remember the name Bill Mott. Now that's pickled!
