I haven't been to the horse races since I lived in Arkansas so when a friend mentioned that they were going on New Year's Day we decided to stop by. It was pretty crowded inside and a beautiful sunny day out, so we set up camp around the outdoor tiki bar. It's not very nice or new, but the people are friendly and the drinks are cheap! Its kind of fun to bet and cheer and see who wins. I won like 3 bucks but lost 10-oh well, chalk it up to fun and call it a day. Probably the best thing I saw was a couple of kids- one holding a trash bag and the other going head first into trash cans fishing out bottles and cans! This gives you a little hint about the crowd, no?
