I don't think the PBR Ironman they have there is ever a sellout and they keep having it. So it will probably be fine. There are really a bunch of people there. It's such a big stadium it looks like no-one is there. LOL |

Yet another reason to NOT have the NFR in Dallas. I think you are just too far away from the action. If I wanted to watch it on the screen, I would just would just watch on TV. |

It was so exciting to see Ote Berry out there. The place would have gone crazy if he would have made a quick run. Sure wish he would have had a super fast run. I'm excited to watch Dan Mortenson, Charmayne, and Joe B coming up. |

Ya I certainly can't speak for her but she likes to have Grasshopper around. He's easy going and is great for giving demonstrations on how she trains her horses. She doesn't need the money. But who knows she has some Clayton babies coming up that she's putting her efforts into. I'm excited I'll be getting one to start training soon. |
