Well this is a different kind of deal than a one day WOo show. I just thought the tickets would go fast cause that grandstand isn't really that big.

Not sure how many was sold. I know they said sold a lot but still had tickets. Not sure either how many that place holds. I hope it's a good turnout for them sure has lot money on line

Tim,

Way to many "huge" local race fans sit at home behind the computer waiting for updates rather than park their butt in the bleachers to actually see the racing. Taking that one further, they then complain when they don't get the updates quickly enough or a full field rundown immediately. Add in the cost of staying home ($0) compared to actually making an effort to get there, and I believe that you have your answer. Sad but true. The tale of the "huge" race fan.

Yes i should have been at Angell Park. Problem is that i missed 17 days of work from a softball league injury. Good thing my Smackdown tickets are paid for or that trip wouldn't happen either.

Sounds like you better give up the one ball sports. To dangerous.

Out of curiosity though,do you play shortstop??

I like the one ball sports cause that's another problem i have.....yes i only have one! I like the shortstop comment but don't play the position. I'm the pitcher and i took a low and i mean really low line drive off my left shin.
