Wow. Finally happened.

“We have a shot at a wild card right now. But it is not a probability that we're going to win a wild card.” -2022 Trade Deadline

"It's liftoff from here" - after selling on 2022

The crowd is still losing their minds. What a cool experience.
Holy shit the racing manager guy is tanked. Lmao.

I had a feeling he'd do it watching the other races. That's an incredible horse.

His rich owner just got richer too. From breeding.

Boxed the trifecta. Wish I would have played it straight. Oh well. I thought Frosted would upset.


Cool to see. Happy to get some monies.

The funny thing is, only in this sport does the winner have no clue what he's accomplished.

I just watched it again, and it's the same story of the first two.  It's like he had another gear at the end that the competition just didn't have.

It's like they're not even in the same race..

 

Frosted got up to him at the top of the stretch, and AP just said, "see ya".

That was awesome. I don't watch it enough (triple crown races and Breeders Cup) but I love seeing horse racing being relevant.

Of course, the one time in literally forever that I have to work the evening of the Belmont, and that's when a goddamn horse when the goddamn Triple Crown! :P

 

I wasn't expecting to get chills. Very cool.

 

I got chills watching on replay, knowing the result and basically how the race went down. It's still incredible.

This was one of those instances where I was actually able to avoid any/all highlights and/or talk of the race before I got home to watch it on DVR.

And, what a freaking race. I can only imagine how bonkers my aunt was going today.

Lemme get two claps and a Ric Flair
