Appreciate the Spring Carnival and all it brings to Melbourne, but i'm so meh about actually attending a race meeting.
Went to the Caulfield Cup a number of years ago through work, but wouldn't have gone otherwise.
Give me the footy and the cricket (Boxing Day) over the races any day of the week.

I feel the same way.

I can see it's value but I don't give 2 shits about horse racing

I'm a bit the same. My boss has a marquee at Flemington for the carnival every year. Guess I'll have to go again.:D

I just find it is another day to go and get wasted for the young ones. I will have a bet however.

I have a couple of friends who want to do ladies in Perth which is in another couple of weeks but I can't be bothered.

Young ones? I've had drinks one cup day, my mum goes all in every year with her friend

JR has a point.

Spring Racing Carnival General Admission is full of 18-21 year olds in hideous bright suits, inappropriately short skirts, drinking champagne from the bottle and making out in full view. Girls carrying shoes in the hands...never a good look.

Do you mean the world series?

You know my feelings on the NRC, the highlights are all I need of the baseball, cricket is great, tennis isn't too bad.

Premier League and the Superbowl are where it is at!

All happy indeed :)
Nah Melbourne Aces baseball. I grew up watching baseball cos Papa Homer played, was raised as a Yankee.
