That $50 bucks sounds like something the BC people would come up with.

For $50.00 they cant include a can of diet coke? That probably cost them a quarter? What are they going to do add $3.50 to the bill if I want a diet coke?
Do they charge for water?

$50.00 ???????

WTF.

First of all, for $50.00 Vince can purchase at least 7 In 'N Out dinners AND they include Diet Cokes or even vanilla milkshakes for those who indulge.

Secondly, I hate Turkey and wouldn't spend .50 loving cents for a turkey dinner, let alone $57.00 or whatever it is.

Wrong. It's a great deal. Look at all that you get. Plus, the food at BHP is really really top notch. If I wasn't working I take advantage and bring Mrs. Goof and my step-daughter for a day of great racing and a celebration of Thanksgiving. I really mean that.

Hey!! Here's a thought. How'd ya like to come up that day and spend a race with the goof on the roof? Let's give thanks to the jockeys who put on such a amazing show and risk their lives everyday.

For a $100 donation to the Disabled Jockeys Fund you can come to the announcers booth with 3 guests and watch me call a race. You'll also get your name in the program as a thanks for your generousity.

We've got 5 races available that day. First come first serve.

Contact the great George O. at 310 419 1441 and he'll sign you up.

See ya on the 22nd.

Goof

I am in

Will you accept an In N Out Franchise or one of the Tahoe trips I have saved as payment for the race?

Also, I don't want my name to be in the program for the horsemen races, or the first leg of the pick six.. I saw what happened to the RUPPLE when he got his race named, Race 3 AND first leg of the pick six.. I don't want that to happen to me.

Sorry. Cash or check only. Good news is except the stake you can choose whatever race you like for the naming.

Thanks TT

If Lester is one of my three guests, would the $100 charge increase?

I think that Goof has banned him from his perch up high at BHP.
