Uncle Mo
 

Today at Gulfstream Park they gave away Uncle Mo T-shirts if you bought any program. I shelled out $1 and got one.

Trivia: It was great to see Johnny V. win as he's one of our group of friends. His son goes to school with my friend's son and they all go to the same church. He's a really nice guy and you'd never in a million years guess he's a national star. He's really down to earth

When he won The Florida Derby with Quality Road two years ago three of the kids went into the winner's circle with him. Johnny gave each of the kids (aged 4 thru 6 at the time) a set of goggles he wore during the race. The kids spent the rest of the afternoon running around The Tiki Hut playing Batman & Robin and Cops & Robbers wearing the "masks." I've got photos of them wearing the goggles, but I think it's inappropriate to publish them.

Needless to say we're psyched he won today and are rooting for him to win The Kentucky Derby.

Here's the official $1 track program for the race:

And here's two views of the well worn T-shirt relaxing on my couch:
