August 10, 2012: The famous Saratoga Race Course was built in 1864 and is open to the public for horse races for 6 weeks during the summer. For just $3, you can enter the race course and view the races.
I went to the races with my friends Mindy and Mariellen and it was the first time any of us had been to a live horse race.
Ready for the races to start!
Warming up... The races go all day long until ~6pm and run a different race every 30 minutes. Very fun to watch!
Verdict: As you can see from our pictures, we were there on a rainy, muddy day. So, maybe if we were there on a sunny day and maybe if I was totally into horse racing, I would feel differently, but while we did have fun and while I'm glad we had the experience, NO, this is not something you need to do before you die.
