They said that 1/3 of all Americans were listening to the Seabiscuit/War Admiral match race on the radio. I guess those were the days.

The footage of the match race is better than Secretariat's Belmont.

If you don't get that channel, check your local listings here.

You can also watch it online: PBS:American Experience:Seabiscuit

Watched a little of it here at work, but need to get back to work plus could not stand the interruptions of the buffering mode.

Ordered a copy to add to my ever growing horse racing DVD and Book collection.

Can not get enough.

LOL - that's a good "mate screen" date! Congrats!

I used to bring boyfriends to the barn, see if they would walk up to the horse, see what kind of face they made avoiding manure ...

This is a different thing; a PBS documentary. Not the movie with Jeff Bridges and Toby Maguire.

Oh, I take it back. That ending didn't suck.

Default Seabiscuit Movie DVD
Bumping this up because I just found the Seabiscuit 2-Disc Ultimate Gift Set at Bed, Bath & Beyond of all places. (This would be the 2003 movie with Jeff Bridges and Toby Maguire). Only $7.99!
