last year I went on Oaks day to the track, which was also opening day at Arlington, then stayed home on derby day. sometimes I'll go up there early on derby day to the otb to make my main wagers, just in case the online world takes a dump or gets too congested on the big day.

Is there anywhere at Arlington where you can get a good seat with a tv on Derby day? I was about to get my tickets online, but not sure if that is what I am going to do yet. I see they are going to try to break the Derby record for attendance.
