its pretty terrible…sigh

The connectivity at Upperville is beyond terrible. Trying to maintain a cell phone call can be challenging, I couldn’t imagine trying to run a livestream or two.

it was fine in years past

Yeah, I can barely get enough service to share pictures to social media there. My husband tried watching us from home on the live feed yesterday and commented on how poor quality was.

There’s no reason they couldn’t have brought in bandwith capacity specifically for the live feed (and the offices/staff). Maybe they did and were relying on satellite–the weather was awful most of yesterday and could have interfered with it.

Not really live feed related, just Upperville related. Mom and I want to come watch on Saturday. Anyone know how much parking is this year? Thanks!

Ignore that last. Show got back to me and it is free. I just thought I remembered paying before, but must have mixed it up with something else.

Many cute pics.

You are correct, spectators have had to pay to park in the past. Piedmont Equine vets sponsored free parking this year.

Ok, I’m not crazy! Thank you to Piedmont, then!

Anybody catch who is commentating the Derby?

I was wondering the same thing–I flipped over to the Derby late because I was watching the sidesaddle.

The stream quality looked better today, on both the Hunter and Jumper side.

We had just come back to the grounds from lunch and saw the firetruck, ambulance and Medivac was just leaving. I heard reports and it certainly scared the folks who were watching. Prayers that she heals up.
