Default Pimlico Rocked This Weekend

been doing the preakness since Afleet Alex and this was the most fun i have had thus far. it was a great race and the place was electric afterwards...waaaaaay more excitement then the year big brown routed the field.

no major snafus this year either...transportation getting out sucked but that's a standard..employees (i think they hire alot of temps) were better then years past. weather was great and all the rest.

not sure why i'm posting this but i really had a great time at the track this weekend...anyone else go and get the same vibe?

At least there were no murders at the track on Preakness day.

Yeah, the crowd seemed to be bigger, earlier, this year. I sat in the 2nd floor lower box seats, outside, and in past years it didn't fill up out there until the 7th or 8th race. This year it seemed as if most were there by the third.

Didn't make the walk over into the infield this time so I don't have a clue how things were out there.

Had a really fun day, and it is always fun to see the women dressed up in their finest. I do have to say that Maggie Wolfendale look EXTREMELY nice in her dress on Black Eyed Susan Day!!!!
