I won't say the name, but there's a porn website that put in a bid to sponsor the Miami Heat's arena now that American Airlines is pulling out.

That would be the ultimate.

Couldn't figure out the joke, then saw it isn't a joke. Really is the Big Ass Fans Dirt Mile.

In prior years going to the saddling barn at Santa Anita could be a chore as it could get awful hot & humid down there with non circulating hot air. Then standing on those heat holding cement steps one hot day while watching the ponies being saddled mentioned to friend that it actually seemed nice down there.
"Oh, they put in some big ass fans"

Looked up at the ceiling "Yep, they're some pretty big ones"
"No, that's the name of the company, Big Ass Fans"
Perfect name for a company because that's what one says when they see them, lowered the temp at least 10 degrees & caused air to move.

One of the best things SA has done in recent years.

And here I was thinking it was a commentary on overweight horseplayers.

Hahah, I agree! Those fans are terrific, at SA and anywhere I've seen them. Quiet and they move an s-ton of air.

Hopefully no one gets wiped out at the start or runs out of gas at the end.

You heard it here first, folks.
