People keep asking why there have been so many more deaths with these tornadoes. I know it's a valid question...but at the same time it's mentalities like those of my friends below that are the reason why it's never going to change. No matter how much research goes into forecasting tornadoes, people are still going to want to be "adventurous" and "fearless". I can't believe people were okay with doing this after all of the devastation in Alabama and Missouri recently.
Tonight, we played handbells for the Race for Grace dinner on Millionaires Row at Churchill Downs. The Prince of Dubai was there. Unfortunately I didn't get a picture of him...but here's one from Google!
We also got to see Pat Day! He even came up and talked to us after we were done performing! ***Day is the all-time leading rider at Churchill Downs and Keeneland Race Course, the two largest tracks in his adopted home state of Kentucky. At the Downs, Day was often so dominant that veteran horseplayers would complain — bettors would often wager so much money on horses with Day in the saddle that the payoff odds would decline.***
