Yup, just remember to tip that poor guy in the ring whose big job seemed to be scoopin' the poop. I'm sure if anybody was there in person, you'd then pick up the cash register noise as he filled each bucket with expensive excrement. I say they kill two birds with one stone next time and offer Fasig-Tipton Gourmet Coffee--you feed the coffee beans to the yearlings before the sale and (like I think they do with some sort of bird) wait for the horses to pass them on through.
