How did you get into racing?

[pmayjr]

My family was never into it, but we'd watch the big races on TV (my pops is more into it now, we watch the races together, and Wire2Wire since we both get home early in the afternoon). When i was about 9 or 10, I remember watching Unbridled win the Derby. I was pissed that Mr Frisky didn't win lol.

I started getting serious with it when Canterbury Park re-opened in '95. by then I was 14 and could watch race-replays of ****ty 5k claiming events every night at midnight locaclly. Combo that with Cigar's streak, and I was hooked! My interest still kinda went up and down from year to year, but at least for the last 5-6 years I've been really inot it. Sites like this and ESPN only help matters.
