Default Tampa Derby question
I'm not complaining..... but am I the only one who was VERY surprised that in a very much hyped, race, with a HUGE 1-9 fave, no where near the ticket and the $2 exacta pays $64.80, and a $1 tri pays just under $220????

The thing that really surprised me was the 4 horse race, I think at Oaklawn, where the exacta paid $220, because the two 8-5 horses ran each other out, and a 6-1 won with the 11-1 taking second, there was no tri in the race.

The TVG crews were actually laughing earlier, saying not if ,but by how much War Pass would win was the only question. Also saying if WP wasn't on the ticket, it would be a signer.

I really thought before the payoffs, that having the $1 tri and $5 exacta would bring back over a thousand, obviously, I was wrong.

Just wanted to see what you guys thought.

I was really surprised that it wasn't a signer for the tri
heck the Super was under $1k and the show horse paid $76 for crying out loud

I think someone knew and loaded up
or the pools at Tampa are really small.
shouldn't be

I wonder if there wasn't some hanky panky going on

How can a place that doesn't take singles be a shithole? Every strip club I have been in that didn't do the single thing was a real nice place, if you can consider a strip club a nice place.

The BEST strip club I have ever been to is Big Al's in Peoria, and DON'T KNOCK it until you have tried it. I have done the Vegas tour of strip clubs, the multiple Chicago places and Big Al's absolutely SMOKED them...

There use to be a topless car wash in Greensboro, NC that was awesome. First time I went was in the company station wagon..great views, good car wash, and when you got out to sit at the tables.....wow...a strip club where you are the only customer. I was taking a business associate on his first trip here from Greece. Half way through he looks over at me and says in his broken English "American, this is a great country!"
