There is a big difference, very big!!!
Getting "Jarred" by other people slipping something in your drink that effects your ability to play. And this thread isnt about that.
"The Jar" is not a good thing for Fatboy, you see I hardly ever drink. But being in this neck of the woods and having the "Friends" I do. I got my very own Mason Jar(look it up if you dont know what i'm talking about:smile: ) wit hthe 2 piece screw lid and it was full.
I started to empty it amd shared some of it too, there was a open mic on TAR so some of you may have heard me, I hope I was funny, I thought I was. Kirkwood(my friend) a well known drinker/player was smart enough to decline the "Jar" meanwhile he was doing commentary on a game we were watching not what the camera was on, so you kinda get the picture.
My "Friend" who provided me the "Jar" did give me a sound piece of advice"Be careful dont do anything stupid" and he went to bed, I assured him I wouldnt. 7 hours later I had been emptied out in a game about a net loss of $5,000. I heard that I was trapped, doubled steered, cant play, could play and stalled, I lost $15,000. ETC ETC ETC.
For the record and whats important to me-I dont care if I got chopped up, trapped(wouldnt be the first and wont be the last time) thats the game. I just want to be clear that it was $5,000 near as I can tell, It counted out to $5,000 but I had about $1,000 left in my pockets so perhaps my math wasnt so good.
I'm not embarassed hell I had fun, but I NEVER exaggerate numbers, If I blew $15,000 I would admit it, if it was less I would admit to that no shame either way. My honesty with numbers i whats important to me. I never exaggerate anything either way, if it aint exciting enough then MAKE it more exciting dont revise history and glorify things with phony stories. Like the Tooth thing, I could have said I had a million in the bag, I didnt. I was honest about that, and this.
If you ever see me on the "Jar", bet with both hands cause ya got the best of me then!!!!!!
Derby was great!!! Attendence was great and the casino didnt get all the $$$. I was very concerned about the future of it when I heard about the venue change, next year will be the real test but I believe thats there is a 90% chance it will be better than this year!!! and Yes I'm doing another $$$ added event, Get me a Jar and there might be ALOT of $$$ added.
thanks to everyone I met here too, lets stay healthy and do it again!!!

for the jockey's at that time. I even owned about 200 Racing Greyhounds myself that raced in 8 states. I was partners in NY with 6 other friends on a pretty well known horse in the 1970's that raced at the 3 major NY tracks. Don't ask the name of the horse, some of my partners are still alive.
