re: #392 wheat-dogghazi-mailgate

I’ve been to the Derby infield three times. It’s more an exercise in cultural anthropology than in watching the races. The infield is wall to wall people in various stages of inebriation and undress, despite efforts to clean things up over the years, and the only way to see the horses is to force your way through the crowd to the inside fence.

I also have the impression that the infields for NASCAR and Indy races are like this as well. Though the race takes longer and thus I guess you have a higher chance of actually seeing a race car in motion.
