It's the Mike Francesa podcast on the BetRivers Network.

Hello again, everybody, and welcome to the Mike Francesa podcast on the Mike Francesa channel

on the BetRivers Network on YouTube on this Friday evening as we move into the Merry, merry

month of May.

And obviously, the first Saturday in May always is where they contest the Kentucky Derby.

The most exciting two minutes in American sport, one of the great sporting events.

And as I've told you many times, there is no sporting event that I've ever gone to

that had that kind of attendance 150,000 and I've been there multiple times. That is run as well.

You're at the track and you can go to the windows.

You can do anything that you would do on a normal day at the racetrack.

Now, it's not, you know, if you go to American tracks on a normal day, it's not very crowded.

Okay, but let's say a normal day at Saratoga, which is a very busy, active place on every day of that Saratoga meet.

The Derby handles crowds, parking, people moving around, food, bedding, whatever, better than anything

I've ever seen. It's remarkable. I've never seen a big event run as well as the derby

run. They are very, very good at it. And it's a, people have a very good time when they go.

But I've said that I would not go back unless I had a horse

in the race and that hasn't happened. So I thought we had one with high oak until the fall in the

fountain of youth. You know, you got to be good and you got to be lucky

you know look at the Florida

Derby winter this year

comes up with a conjula of fracture

okay
