Forum Quotes of the Year

Postby Vince P » Thu Dec 20, 2012 12:55 pm

Love this one because, personally, I only deal in the straight truth/facts when I post my BS:

"You are certainly entitled to your own opinion but not your own facts."

(and yes, this is racing related because it was originally posted in General Racing)

Any others?

Far far too many gems to remember.

One of the more recent ones I enjoyed was............

" Betfair Hollywood Park management should show more "incite" into what their fans really want"

I have two, besides the obvious Lester quotes. Two classics that should be the quotes of the year.

Lester, talked to someone in the know at Hollywood Park and they are going to do a fabulous promotion opening weekend. Word is they are going to have the neighborhood hero's from yesterday's bank robbery drive around the track throwing money out the window for all fan's in attendance. The sticking point from what I heard is if they are going to throw cash or voucher's out the window.

And this one from earlier in the season

I couldn't believe what happened to me and my friends at Betfair Hollywood Park between the 9th and 10th races.
Sitting in the Players Club at tabled seats in front of a bank of TV monitors, my regular horse playing friends and I
went to make wagers at various tracks that were running between the 9th and 10 th races of the BHP card. When
we returned to our seats all of our racing forms were gone including the ones for Sunday's card bought in advance.
In my 30+ years of visiting local race tracks, this crap only happens at Betfair Hollywood Park. Security is so lax
as most of the guards there are socializing among themselves rather than surveying what is really going on there.
Smoking, stealing personal belongings, profane language, are all allowed and tolerated there. If the culprit who
took my racing form or my friends' forms is a member of this forum, I have a warning for you. If I catch you in
the act of doing it again you'll wake up in intensive care at Centinela Valley Hospital and I will be booked into the
Inglewood jail. You've been warned!!!!!

Yup. I own that one TT. Obviously my open threat worked as I haven't had a problem since. :)
