And you as a CD cheerleader are proud of that? That a guy who has put hundreds of millions in the game, that the guard knew who he was, was forced to go back and get a piece of paper for "regulations" purpose? Geez, thats just horrible. I never heard anything so awful in my life. Thank God they won't get their hands on NY racing. Thats the last thing NY racing needs, moronic bureaucratic regs where trained people just don't have the guts or authority to make judgement calls. Ask a CEO of any successful company if he wants drones working for him or people who can think and make decisions and see what they tell you.
