IF A DRUNK FALLS IN THE INFIELD AND NO ONE’S THERE TO SEE HIM…

There has been plenty of clamor about the infield at this year’s Preakness. As a Preakness veteran – both in the infield and the owner’s box, we find it compelling. If you, loyal reader, do not, we apologize.

Having said that, a dude named Bradford Cumming’s wrote a piece for the Paulick Report titled “If A Drunk Falls In The Infield…”

Now Brad – we surmise his friends call him Brad – is a funny guy and this story is worth reading if you’re interested. It includes, among other things, this quote from a Baltimore police officer: “There ain’t no tits.”

This photo of the ridiculously sparse crowd was taken by our friend Nick Hahn who was covering the race for the Richmond Times-Dispatch.
