Saratoga so far

I had a great time opening day. What a crowd! People were having a blast. It was nice being able to meet a few Dt'ers. It was funny when someone said "oh the troublemaker". Steve is a great guy. E-street and I bought a DT stable hat which I've proudly worn ever since. Didn't get any pulled pork yesterday. I'm saving myself for Saturday. By the way, the "sights" at the track don't seem to get any better. I'm glad my wife thinks I go there just to gamble. LOL just kidding

As far as the wagering goes, I bombed out in the early pick-4 and made some goofy mistakes on a Pick-3 ticket that I did not play very smart. I went too deep on the first leg and not deep enough in the last leg which ended with that 20K claimer. I'm looking forward to the remainder of the meet. It has been an interesting beginning and this years Whitney looks very competetive. I look forward to meeting more DT'ers. Good luck. Pat

Then Costello says to Abbott, "Naturally".

Anyway, looks like Saratoga can have "long shot days."
I've seen it before, a few years ago.
One guy kept watching the tote, betting the faves.
Not a one came in for him that day.
Naturally.

I wonder how many douchebags are dumped in the Saratoga Springs Landfill during the live meet?

Why would I wonder if I already knew how many there were, douche?

Wow...Is everything O.K? Bad Night? Too much Booze? The old Fpsoxfan would take offense, but I'm rehabilitated and besides I am naturally a douchebag at times.
