Default Million Day Thoughts/Opinions

1) An absolute madhouse at like 9:45 in the morning, SPRINTING GRANDPA's for seats. It was out of control, like they haven't eaten for weeks and they were handing out water

2) Before I even find the boxes I have, I am getting YELLED AT but multiple security guards. It was like Fort Knox and they told the guards they couldn't get paid without being jerkoffs

3) Free beer/food all day for myself and two friends that were with

4) Continued harassment by rent a security guards, EVEN KICKING HABER out of our box for the ACTUAL MILLION Race, I tried to get bad on the security guard but Haber just left.

5) DIDN'T CASH ONE TICKET ALL DAY

6) Gorella is the goods, frenchy didn't even whip her once the whole time, it was the most impressive performance on the day.

7) Million sucked this year, but my dad crushed the living crap out of it

8) Showing Up wasn't THAT impressive. It might have been because it was a wire to wire performance but I was more impressed with turn of foot by Ivan, still though Showing Up was good

9) Screw the traveling Euros

10) Looked for Dellinger, too late, asked Lou

11) Amatuer day, I see this guy with $56 on his voucher playing $5 super straight tickets

12) Man did I mess up the Showing Up race, I didn't like Go Between at all and I just saw that f'n exacta paid $20 with Ivan, unbelievable

13) I want Guidry's head on a stick. Guy rode like a complete jackass today, including the 4th race where he opens the horse up by 4 lengths and gets nipped

14) My dad is loosing his touch, got us boxes in the F'n sun and my forehead looks like a tomato

15) Last and MOST IMPORTANTLY is English Channel is DONE...he is the rat that he is. He must be knocking the boots when he gets to Arlington because he just flats doesn't like to run as solid as he has at other places (I know today he was 3w3w the whole time and Johnny might have errored here, but still, very salty)
