Just ice, that is all. The nazi at the main gate totally disrespects me. I understand that I may have not been following rules, but when he TOUCHED me, then proceeded to ask "Can you read?" ..... Let me explain, every other track we went to that week allowed me to bring my drinks in.. Terre Haute, The Mile, Putnamville, Bloomington, they all allowed it. So no, I was not thinking to look for a sign that says I can't. Excuse me for assuming. ... He is lucky I was not driving my own vehicle and kind of at the mercy of not having my own way out of there, next time he touches me I will make damn sure he doesn't have the physical ability to ever touch anyone again. ... Moral of the story, keep youR ICE in the truck. Or Hitler will try to give you some (as Jack Hewitt would say) "His shirt says staff, so now he has some authority."
Being that the consensus is that Kokomo has the best track in Indiana, they tend to get a little cocky. But that's okay, 10 years ago, Gas City was all-the-rage, and look at the situation it's in now; Kokomo's time will come if they continue to not follow the "Golden Rule".
