    Went last year, but won't be able to make it this time around.

    How many years in succession has Peggy won the race now?

    If she wins again I wonder how many tickers will be pissed that the maibock's name didn't change...

    Yep. Since 4/8/13.

    However, I'll definitely be around for part of the first weekend of PBW. Just have to figure out the "most worthy" ones to attend. :-)

    Sounds good! I'll try to bring out a few treats from the PNW to share during the festivities.

    Peggy is a fine goat, but I confess I'll always have a soft spot in my heart for Dax. That was one fast goat!

    I have wanted to go to this for a few years now but it hasn't worked out.
    I refuse to miss it this year. Can't wait to see what all the talk has been about.

    Seems like it needs to be at an actual track. Like if you dont camp out your spot all day you gotta bring stilts to actually see anything. Also, where is the pricing info? I assume the beer and food isnt free.

    pretty much everything is paid for with tickets, which are $5 a piece iirc.
