I Got Food Poisoning Too.....
We lived on pizza from that place for most of the event. Guess we got lucky. Seems people ALWAYS get sick at the Derby. I almost always am down for the next few days after returning. Actually feel pretty decent this year.
The Derby City Crud is a time honored tradition second only to the Vegas Heaves. Hope everyone makes it through OK.
We arrived on Saturday, Jan 23 and were staying until the following Saturday. On Wednesday evening I got so sick in my room in the early evening, I was bedridden for about 20 hours. My roommate actually had an EMT come to my room. By the time they came, most all of the "bathroom" action was over, so I just stayed in bed. I didn`t show my face from Wed about 6pm until about noon on Friday. Terrible stomach pains. It was somethin` special, I can guarantee you. :yikes:
AS Gilda Radner (Rosanna Danna Danna) used to say, "It`s always somethin`. First, it`s one thing, then another!"
Other than the food war, I really did enjoy DCC. I was up every night until almost dawn, bought a couple of cues, enjoyed the tourney matches and genuinely enjoyed renewing friendships. :wave3:
See you all in VF. Time to do it all over again!
