Don't know. Typically lose or ruin most of them before I pass out that night.
Since this week is a wash I guess I'm the only Kentuckian who doesn't give a rip if Churchill opens or not? Sure, CHDN may get a bump in share price and the state can bank some off-site gambling revenue, so what. Does nothing for the local mom & pop stores that make their year charging ******** from across the country 3x their normal price for some driftwood signs and bourbon laced accouterments.
And if we can't play hooky all week getting our daily drink on at the chow wagon, steamboat race, parade, trackside / backside / Dawn at the Downs, finally to dress up like some obnoxious pastel Kentucky Colonel these next three days, then leave the horses in the stable until folks can attend in person.

I care if Churchill Downs is open, but mostly because, you know, that’s where the actual Derby race is held.

Horse racing is fairly important to the state and should've be open the entire time.

Monday / Tuesday - Fonner Park and Will Rogers Downs
Friday / Saturday / Sunday - Gulfstream - Oaklawn - Tampa Downs
Man, eff some Los Alamitos and Remington Park. Just can't bring myself to bet on quarter horses. Seeing Palomino horses trotting out to race is just weird AF to me.
Have made some coin betting Fonner and WRD. Gulstream can go get fuked. Have took a beating there. Too much chalk for my liking. Several exactas and trifectas cashing for less than $20.

Don't forget the Michters Toasted Sour Mash that he whiffed on, too.
Embarrassing.
It may not have blown your skirt up like the sake those yariman pour down your gullet, but it sure as **** wasn't that sewage the good doctor tried to pass off as top shelf all because some Green Beret's pissed in it.
-What a stupid, crazy time to own and run a business. To run a business with any number of employees, you have to be an Infectious Disease Doc, Human Resources GURU, OSHA Genius, therapist, bouncer, babysitter, and banker. You know, basically like how stuff is when there's not a pandemic.
-If anyone is interested in owning a successful, 48-year-old business with an established client base and management, holla at yo brotha.
-Every day I live through the pandemic, I'm a year closer to saying "F" it, selling everything, move to South Bluffton, buy a couple of boats, and open up Huber's Crabbing Charters & Coastal Cruises on the May River. Lives too short for this bullsh*t.
-Happy Birthday, Anth! Hope it's a good one.
-Was planning on getting a new truck/suburban-type vehicle this year, pricing keeps dropping. Thinking about holding another month or two. Any Lexington car dudes on here? Need something big enough that its 179 compliant.
-Drive-thru strip clubs. Put that in the "Ideas I thought up in 2001" file.
-College Football season....... Please happen. It's the only bright spot I had to look forward to in 2020. F U 2020.

What about when The Bonz was pushing hot sauce in draft beer?
Some of you ******** are drinking Bud Light with corn syrup infused fruit flavoring, so I guess it could always be worse.
WHAT ABOUT !?! Deflect, deflect, deflect...
I mean, yeah wasn’t great, but it won awards.
Highly recommend for the first couple draft domenstos at Keeneland, as it really sets the tone for the day [smoke]
And that tone is “you’re going to need to take a ****.”
Not sure but I'll defer to one that nurses coffee all day at a home football game about that.
This nostalgia always takes me back to some favorite Derby’s Eve traditions:
1. Pre-Oaks brunch with your best friends.
2. Betting every race with a Mint Julep in your hand.
3. Coaxing your generous boss to pick up the tab on a limo to chauffeur you and your buddies around the Highlands and then blacking out and busting his bedroom door down later that evening in a fit of rage.

Amazing how many stories come from that 36 hour period every year, and any other time it would be unacceptable, yet are calmly overlooked like you've done 200 Hail Mary's.
Congrats to Bonzo on the worst post of the month! Just in time.
-Come on Chad, he was just drunk that's all, he ain't always like dat

Yes, but at least that's just opinionated sports fandom ****, on a completely fantasy topic (UK players playing 2on2 on touching video games)
Not giving AF if racing going on in our state (and home city) by reason of not being able to bonzo bounce around on premises is incredibly ridiculous...for too many reasons to mention.
Pretty sure our beloved Churchill, town, & marquee industry have suffered enough (along with anyone else who's been shut down)
Also, the horses aren't in the stable. They're offsite at random storage facilities. My golf partner & family haven't left their barn in 40+ years until this ****.

BBdK always took his game up another level Derby week. That limo night he was making out with some smoke and a year later he had some girl at @mosphere. He was always all about the drama, though.
Funny thing on that limo night. I ended up running into my now brother-in-law at Molly’s and cabbing out to some UofL bar with him at 4 a.m. Didn’t even know him very well back then.
Always spent at least $50 a night on cabs anytime I came to Louisville.

Well, it would have been $25 if you didn't always ditch me. 
-My best Derby story involves me walking into a pole on Btown after leaving the crew at PHT/Pygmies, falling down, getting helped into a 'gypsy cab' with 2 BBW, and paying double the agreed upon fare for an extra service one of them offered in transit.
A lifetime ago, but I can play that one back amazingly clear, given my state.

Typical cab fare is about 25 bucks, but if you can get a ride home AND a handy from a fat black chick for 50 — you have to jump on that offer. Every single time.
My kids and their friends are gathering pitchforks to storm the capitol.
