Title: Bourbon Lounge...shhh dont say a word!
Post by: Niall on November 02, 2015, 09:36:27 AM
I dont have a ton of time at the moment, but wanted to get this conversation started. 1. Are there any posters on here who had tickets to the above? And 2. If you didnt are you aware of what happened? One would think that NYRA in disguise ran a certain portion of the BC. Kentucky State Troopers removing FANS from tables. I\'ll expand later. Luckily the Keeneland folks couldnt have been more helpful and gracious to the extent that they could...

I know for a fact that many tickets to the bourbon lounge were given to connections and told they could go there for drinks.  It wasn\'t intended for them to camp there all day.  Poor planning perk that sounds like it went awry.

That makes sense although they should have had that \"area\" separated. It was half the tent ... And to boot the $350 did not get you entrance to the track.
