I love the guys at the OTB yelling at their horse that's running on the TV... do they really think the horse can hear them?

Someone said the cheesiest pick-up line to me ever at Saratoga this summer;

"Hey baby, if you were in the paddock, I'd be betting on you"

You gotta bet that horse! He's a Fu-peg colt! He's gonna win because he's a Fu-peg colt!

"I had that cold." ... some guy that always sits by me at the OTB that seems to have every horse in the race bet, yet I never see cashing a ticket.

A new york guy says to a guy cheering loudly after his 3/5 shot won:

"3/5? You owe THEM money!"

Great post, I haven't laughed like that in a while, but my all-time favorite is when they run a 1 1/2 race on the turf and these idiots start cheering as they are crossing the finish line for the 1st time.

My vote goes to Oracle's post - Classic "Prado wouldn't stick around if he knew he could lose this race."

old timer "I got the tri!! i got the tri!!"

since it's a seven horse field and knowing that this guy always boxes the favorites, after the prices are posted i ask him how he made out.

old man "damn! i lost 80 cents"
