OT: Where Are You?

Submitted by VCavman24 on

Oftentimes while reading this blog I notice in the comments people mention where they are presently located in the world.  I always (wrongly) imagine that all of the readers are in Michigan, but I am always amazed as to the quantity and diversity of readers' locations.  So, out of curiosity, where are you presently located in the world?

 I, for one, am currently in the D.  How about the rest of you?

If you are in the infield : get to the betting booths early, they get really cramped and long lines the later you wait. Have fun. Many in sundresses wear only sundresses if you catch my drift. Also, it's not like you thought it would be is it?

Grandstands: Head to the bathroom before you even have to go to the bathroom. Definitely take a few pisses without drinking anything else  before you leave or you will have to pee somewhere that isnt a toilet especially if you wait in the cab line (P.S. don't wait in the cab line just walk towards downtown and you'll find one somewhere)

Also you will be very surprised at where Churchill Downs actually is. Not exactly what it looks like on tv.

Have fun though and drink a mint julep just to say you did. They're awful and everyone hates them. Bourbon is the way to go.

Ann Arbor, MI - Born and raised in, and current resident of.

There's no city in the world I'd rather call home.  Took me a few years living elsewhere and saying I'd never again live in Michigan to finally figure that out.
