SO muddy tho'. I was pulling for Patch, first because I used to have a Greyhound named Patch. Second, the whole missing eye thing.

I'll never forget the only time I've been to the Derby. Just graduated from high school, several friends camping out at the front gates over night to get into the infield. We saw a hit and run right in front of us, where the guy was killed. Someone tried to pick pocket me. AND, I won money!

I've actually run a 5K race that finished on that track back in the day. It was like running thru quicksand, even dry.
