This has been one of the most enjoyable threads that I can recall. I love everyone's recollections of special times at the track. Here's one of mine: It was 1959 and I was 7 years old at my father's side in the Bowie clubhouse. It was not unusual, at all, to see J. Edgar Hoover there. My Dad took me up to Hoover and said, "ask Mr. Hoover for his autograph." Hoover looked down at me and said, "I'll give something better than that...bet the 2 horse." The 2 went right to the front, led all the way and paid $8.20. Those were great times.
