A Real Reason to Root For Big Brown

↵I’ve made it clear in the space before that I don’t like horses, therefore I don’t care at all about horse racing. The arrogance of these equines is sickening. I mean, what makes them think they’re sooo much better than donkeys? Or camels? Stupid, holier than thou, prejudice horses. Although, really, it’s not their fault; they learn it all from their owners. ↵↵But finally, a reason to care if Big Brown runs in a circle faster than the others:↵

↵↵⇥And if Big Brown makes it to the winner’s circle, he will be greeted by busty Hooters girls in tightfitting T-shirts. ↵⇥
↵⇥
↵⇥“We do have our logo right up on the jockey,” Mike McNeil, vice president of marketing for Hooters of America, told the Daily News. ↵⇥
↵⇥
↵⇥“We’ll have Hooters execs and Hooters girls in the winner’s circle when the horse wins.” ↵↵The weather forecast for the Belmont is 91 degrees with a 10% chance of rain. If there is a god, that 10% will turn into 100% at the exact moment that Big Brown enters the “busty Hooters girls” infested winner’s circle.↵
