Do I know you? I'm the guy that can sit at the races all day and never bet if I don't see anything worth playing, but will stand up and root with all my might for a certain winner the moment I hear people around me screaming for other horses.
When the outcome looks pretty cut and dried at the eighth pole, I'll even give it the old "come on with the three for second, run up into third six, come on now, all I need is an eight or ten for the super... BINGO!!!!...." just to aggravate the guys around me... at which point I head off to a window to ask for a printout of the scratches from about five tracks....
Sometimes you have to invent fun.
