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.

A co-worker was married to a guy whose family works a lot of the concessions. We managed to throw a Derby party in Seoul at around 0300, with that year’s correct glasses and napkins.
