What do you think? I think that it would be pretty cool...

Vinnie,

I go to Mustang quite a bit. I live by South Lakes off of SW 119th. Small world eh?

I just did a search for both 'Horse Racing' and then 'Pimlico' to record and get zero results for tomorrow (Saturday).

Is this race going to be on TV or is it another Derby TV blackout?

Have you been following the posts asking what exactly you will receive, I think you should check before race?

Thanks.

I don't understand why it doesn't come in my DVR search. I'll check the NBC channels around those times in my area.

I only read the rules they sent me including the person and the 2 lines dedicated to me for the wager but I did not verify.

I will verify before the race.

Had a blast today, met up with phantom and jocko, awesome guys, Heinekens were flowing, I didn't drink one but that's besides the point, best part of day was seeing phantom with a clear mind after his health scare lingering last susan day

On to jocko, Geoff guy as good as it gets, you guys will see him I believe around the 8th, you guys will love him, as sharp as it gets and just really fun to listen too and former vet, told him if he ever can pop off a price in this race guy would have a future on tv👍👍👍👍👍👍

Gonna root my heart out for whoever he has, and PA getting mentioned is gonna be a win win for all on here

and to PA himself got you a Preakness glass, will be in better shape then the crumpled up California chrome ticket I got you 3 years ago😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Very cool...however, unless they broadcast you live, they'll probably cut it out somehow...

I REALLY HOPE YOU CASH THIS SUCKER!

0.0000001 the 25k goes in on the and that's takes a ton of heart I can't wait to see this unfold gonna be great TV

Too funny, brought my girlfriend to the track today, she met Geoff later on in evening at dinner she says text Geoff and wish him good luck.....then pure gold came....

She says "do you think the track will fix the race so his horse doesn't win": lol:

I said no that won't be an issue

Any update on who Jocko is taking?

[Mike Hawk]

I've been following this thread for the last week, and first off, let me say congrats to jocko for winning this contest!

However, I watched the NBC coverage and didn't see the interview. Maybe I missed it?

Also, anyone have a clue which horse he put the 25k on?
I didn't see the thread he said he would post today telling us which horse he chose. I'd just really like to root for a horse since I was not able to bet this years Preakness.

Just saw you're from OKC! Good luck!
