I don't know, it would be cool to be there for history but such a big crowd, I deal with that every work day. Might rather just go to Monmouth for a while then watch at home with beer and food and more beer. Have a good time!

That's what I always do......go to the track and then leave at 4pm and watch from home:....
Even money either way on me going

I had plans on Pimlico Wizz, and even had a ticket lined up but my career got in the way.
M/L Odds for me attending Belmont are about the same as you. Weekends in the Spring and Summer for me are busy with my career. We'll see.
I got a Tweet from Bernier (HorsePlayers) that he scored a Hotel 20 mins from the track for $300 for June 6-8. That's a deal.

A agree....I bought off stubhub and was told the buyer hasn't gotten them yet...
I can almost see Belmont coming up with a story being a triple crown is on the line.....
I'm not sure what the scene will be like as that race gets ready to go....
If I go GA (not gamblers anonymous) I gotta figure I can outsmart the 1 time a year crowd and get close to the rail.....
I'm really not that exited about dealing with a mass crowd....
The stoopers have to be like the Tazmanian devil in the cartoon with the knife and fork in hand and drool coming from mouth.....

Those who show up will likely be wearing nasal strips in protest .
But I think the stewards will make the right choice .
Then again , there are other reasons to defect .

At Ticketmaster, just now, for Belmont seats, it stated nothing available. I looked at seats on Stub Hub and they are through the roof...which has been the case in the past with a TC possible. But these seem really, really HIGH.
For years, my Belmont ticket/parking pass has been purchased as soon as they go on sale. It arrived several weeks ago. I feel for anyone without a seat as they will be standing all day. The backyard can hold but so many lawn chairs and so many blankets.

Sort of like a bad beat when you bet horses: You pay your money and take your chances.
