A trip to Fair Grounds with my Dad when I was five is what got it all started for me. Soon after we made regular trips to the now defunct Trinity Meadows and by the time I saw my first Belmont Stakes (1993) I was hooked. I still get odd looks when reading the DRF on an airplane and I have friends that thing I'm completely obsessed. It's long past time to explain that horse racing draws you in like no other game. It is the greatest game in the world, bar none.
