Off Topic- Sweet Willie at Balmoral
 
Last Sunday I was at Balmoral Park with some people to watch some harness races.

Lo and behold, there was a horse running in the 8th race named Sweet Willie! ^

I had to play the horse, in honor of our FlyerTalk member's handle of Sweet Willie.

He paid $57 and change!!!!!:o

He's running again tomorrow in the 3rd.

(this is not a tip or recommendation.............just a statement that names matter :p )

Mmmmm? Gladly for Sweet Willie..............but I must ask..........how did you get into this picture? (and lunch) :D :p

Besides, what do stone or marble Gargolyes eat for lunch?

OH well! I didn't play him either!:(
