My nephew lives in Richmond KY and for years got 4 reserved seats for the derby...would ask me every year if i wanted to go but begged off, didn't want to fight the crowds just to say i had been to the derby.. I prefered the otb or puter and tv..He would call me from the track and ask who i liked..after a few years of laying stiffs on him he doesn't call anymore

Not sure which commercial it is, but there's one where the ladies say, "I'm worth it." Well, me too.

Definitely, been a struggle though, visiting all the sites that sell tickets and trying to figure out the best ones for us.
