I was at Monmouth today. The place looked great, but there were a lot of people still working feverishly. I wonder how many general admision tickets there are, because there didn't seem to be a lot of room on the paddock side of the track. They have tents and all kinds of temporary concession stands set up. They also had a big tent set up behind the temporary seating on the clubhouse turn. It looked like they were going to have plenty of betting windows available. There were sign of food concessions also. The downside is that it looks like you will have to use porta potties if you have to go to the can. Sections 500, 600 and 800 located on the apron of the track were like a white wooden folding chair. Didn't have time to snoop around the area at the top of the stretch, my son was getting restless and wanted to go to the fair they had outside the track. It only other thing that concerns me is that I didn't see any type of big screen / jumbotron TV's inside the track on the infield or in the paddock area. I would think and hope that they would have some sort of screens for people inside the track and in the paddock. Inside the grandstand, they replaced all the old tv's with new flatscreens, they looked awesome and it also looks like they were taking out all the old teller machines and replacing them with new ones. T minus 5 days, lets hope they get the rest of the work done and the event goes off without a hitch. Maybe they can catch a couple of days weather wise as nice as today too. I can hardly wait!

Is my main man " Birmingham Mac" going to be there?
It will take me the rest of my life to get over the night before the Arlington Breeders' Cup
