For 20 years or so, I lived about two miles from Churchill Downs, and never, not even once, went to the Derby, or any other horse race. Just didn't (and still don't) give a rat's azz about it all. I went to the track one time, when Mom and other cancer survivors were treated to a free day at the track. I spent all my time watching people and not the horses (good for coyote bait only, in my eyes).
Living in Louisville doesn't have much going for it, even if you like horses, and I do not like horses. I'm glad I moved out of that pestilential schitthole.
+1. Never went either, and the best thing that could happen to KY is if they nuked Louisville from orbit.
