Proof that the underdog can and will win!!!!


Giacamo odds 50-1
Closing Argument odds 72-1

Finish in the Kentucky Derby - 1st and 2nd

George Steinbrenner's horse Bellamy Road - 7th place

If 2 underdogs can be the big winners, that gives hope to the rest of us in the world!!

3. I cashed a Trifecta once for over 8 grand...as you know,
..you have to sign (for IRS) to cash that much.
I was shaking so bad I had to use my other hand to steady the pen!!
