Otto

I was at my buddies place tonight and out of nowhere he comes up with the idea to do horse races. Let me tell you what Rand, everyone that was there has heard of the game before and they all were big fans. Even though the dealer wasn't as good as you Rand (he didn't even give each suit a horses name; I attempted to do an actual play by play but was awful and stopped) it was still highly enjoyable. It was played a little different from your rules, but obviously still the same concept. All in all it was great and I got so pumped to hear everyone talk so highly of the game.

Also I was drinking Bud Ice tonight and I tried to tell everyone what makes a beer Ice instead of Light or Regular, but I vaguely remembered the explanation you told me Sam and I know I've heard you tell this numerous times, but I just couldn't remember. My bad, my bad

Horse races are awesome! That's great to know I wasn't crazy (... Bry was just a cold-hearted mizer who couldn't enjoy a quality drinking game).

I'm thinking I might try to raise the game's profile out here on the west coast. I've been going to the quarter horse races down in Los Alamitos and I'll probably use the names of the horses I've seen run there, and spit out specific facts about each horse as I try to motormouth my way through the calls. It'll be drunken fun and (could potentially be) financially beneficial for the smashed gamblers and spectators

Ice beers are fermented at lower temperatures. When the beer is frozen during fermentation, ice is scraped off the top so that the alcohol concentration is higher.

I know Dave would be down. He has gone to the extent of building a board and specialized cards for it in the past. Be careful though, it has been known to make him mad and throw the cards against the wall.
