Congrats to American Pharaoh for the Triple Crown.
I feel like horse racing is a sport I could get into because each match is only like 90 seconds long. Anyone else with me? |

It legitimately baffles me how once a year a ton of people pretend to give a shit about horse racing and treat it like it matters at all to anyone other than degenerate gamblers

My grandmother's always been really into horse racing. I never paid much attention of it but I'd still watch the big 3 races. Was pretty sure there'd never be another Triple Crown just because of the fact that the Belmont is a longass race and usually the horse going for the Triple Crown is the only one that has run 3 times in 5 weeks.
Cool to see. |

Not gonna pretend like a give more than half a shit, but it's pretty cool that we actually have a Triple Crown winner after 37 years.

Forgot the Triple Crown was even possible this year since I thought some other horse won the 2nd race.
Laughed a bit at the first Crown champion in years ends up being a horse with a misspelled name. |

Living in the bluegrass region of Kentucky its a big deal. Lexington is pretty much surrounded by horse farms.
