Default Breeder's Cup Tickets, anyone going?

Just got a letter in the mail saying that I will be in section 125...anyone else going? Now I just need to figure out how I am going to get there.

No sir, I hung up the mic. The business is wack now. I still battle Kasept once in a while though, and I don't have to tell you who gets wrecked..

I am going to try, I went the last time at Churchill. The local sports radio show had trivia call in contests almost daily for about 2 weeks before the BC. The questions were easy and it was easy to get in, I guess people around here weren't that enthused to go to the BC, the seats were great, in a box right at the finish line.

Here's the questions, I had to answer:

Who's the oldest jockey to win a BC?

Who's the oldest trainer to win a BC?
What horse did he do it with?

I went to the last BC at Belmont and have to say that I was disapointed with how NYRA ran the whole thing. Slow tellers, little to no tote machines. It was a total mess in my eyes. It completely affected my handicapping and prevented me from calling audibles on my bets throughout the day. I'm hesitant to go to Churchill this year because of last years experience. I'm wondering if this is typical for BC day or will Churchill do a better job of running it. I would love to go if I thought it is going to be run better. I'm wondering if anybody has any insight on Churchill during the big days.
