Preakness. It’s My Weakness.
This is a meta-photo of our Preakness experience. We were on the outside looking in, but it was amazing people watching.
Faced with the choice of standing in the muddy infield, or rubbing elbows with the hat-wearing air-conditioned box seat ticketholders for cheaper; I went with the hats.
My grandmother called me to ask if I could place a bet on her and my grandfather’s behalf on the horse Platinum Couple to show. The horse was getting between 25 and 50:1 odds.
The picture you see was chosen as DCist’s photo of the day.
