My wife was a manager at Churchill Downs for a while back in the 90's. One of the worst jobs she ever had. The most rich folks treat the staff like they owned them, like indentured servants or slaves. Lots of straws got wiped on body parts before those mint juleps got served.

Yep; the only thing worse than a drunk are drunk who think they are better than you. Spent too many years pouring them off aircraft before the Derby, then having to pour them back on the aircraft after the Derby. I’ve lived in the Louisville area most of my life, yet have NEVER been to the Derby; not planning to go, either.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
