OK, so why the sloping floor on the ground level of the grandstand? I know it’s old but I believe they could flatten the ground before building, even back then. I am not too sound anymore and that was just a real PITA, certainly not too comfortable. Plus, it seems hazardous, esp. if rainy out and someone wears not quite the right footwear for it.
The tents - when do (some of them, at least) come down? Yes, I know it makes them money and all but they make it so you can’t see about 2/3 of the race. Seriously!?! It made it barely worth going. Do some of the tents come down the day after the Preakness, I hope?
They did do a nice job with the flowers on the infield, though. And, for Shammy, no parts of the building fell down while we were there.
Now, I don’t mean to stir the pot & I know some of you like Pimlico. To me, it was one of those - things that make you go hmm . . . ?
