Belmont.
Anybody going Saturday ?
I've driven down there in the past but am looking for a ride or if someone knows of a tour bus thingy.
A triple crown winner is historic and I'd like to see it, if it happens.
Last time I went down, The Great Communicator died and Smarty Jones got nipped by that friggin' Birdstone.

I'll be in Elmont tomorrow. Watch for me, I'll have on a red hat. This better not be a repeat of Smarty Jones.

Lol. There will be 90,000 people there. You may need to be a bit more descriptive.
Have fun and enjoy the race.
