What is Churchill's position on signs?
 
I was thinking in the context of the BC, but are there times when Churchill won't allow signs to be waved around or is it generally a free for all? In terms of people being able to see what's going on and having signs around the horses, is there a balance between showing support for your favorite and blocking someone's view in the paddock?

They don't have a position currently but I'm sure they'll get around to charging extra to bring in a sign. I'm really shocked they haven't already considering they're so good at finding ways to nickle and dime their patrons to death.

Signs in horseracing are incredibly stupid. Horses read even worse than football players.

I was going to say that it is fine to bring a sign, as long as you dont put it near Rand Paul's box.

I've never once seen a sign there on either Derby or BC days, but I'm sure someone else has had a different experience.

Hopefully their position will be, NO SIGNS. Can you imagine spending triple digits on a ticket only to have your vision blocked by a Yay Zenyatta sign as they roar down the stretch in the classic?

No signs, no umbrellas.

I bet that guy got in his bet at EMD. He had at least four or five minutes after he stopped yelling Zenyatta.

I would put "Never Forget" on this pic and blow it up and make a gigantic sign.

So if anyone is looking for Coach next week, he'll be the guy holding two cocks.
