PA, it's been a real eye-opener for sure. But even more it's been a place to come and visit with friends.

Thanks and Congrats!

A huge thank you

Thanks so much for this forum!!! I rarely post, but look forward everyday to logging in and reading everyone's take on all things horseracing.

From a big fan of racing originally from about 1 mile from the back entrance of Keeneland Race Course.

It's your last year as a teenager.Pretty soon, you're going to have to move out of Mom's basement, get a REAL job and stop associating with those good-for-nothing horse racing hoodlums.

Congratulationsand hopefully there'll be many, many more years.Unless Off Topic - General finally drives you around the bend.

I'd like to thank all the little people who have been involved to help me make this forum such a success. But I can't because I mostly did it all myself.



Congrats PA!

That's not true.

There were many notable players along the way...in fact, probably way too many to mention specifically because I'm sure I'll leave MANY people out.

Nowadays, there is cj, who is and has always been, THE MAN, and Track Collector who helps with contest scorings.

There was Jay Trotter back in the day who helped with contests, and that big ol' PaceAdvantage.com hockey jersey-type shirt giveaway. I still have some of those lying around. He also helped in getting the design of the present day PA logo.

There was BillW (who no longer comes here, but is still listed as a moderator). He helped moderate the board big time years ago. Buddha was also big time help as a mod and contest scorer. Haven't seen him in ages.

There were a LOT of people who without their help, this site might not have lived this long.

Then there were the cast of characters who kept everyone coming back for more.

Who can forget SUFF (now FUSS)...AND he made sure a lot of those earlier Saratoga get togethers were anything but boring!

Grits, JustRalph, TOM, all the lunatics on off-topic from EVERY political persuasion...all the industry folks like the little guy, Vic Stauffer, Dave Schwartz, Jeff Platt, and all the guys and gals who don't use their real names, and all the other people I'm not naming who, when I read or hear their names, I'll smack my head and say "Oh Shit, can't believe I forgot to list him/her"

There are just way too many people to thank, actually.

Which is why I wrote, without ALL OF YOU, this place probably wouldn't still be here today.

THANK YOU ALL

good old days

Honored by the mention, even with the tint of shade included.

Here's a few of your mentions in one place. 15 years ago!!! Remember my TVG appearance where I pimped your website? You never paid my invoice!
