Say what you will about Ed Teefey, but if we had followed his advice some 20 years ago and teamed up with the casino interests instead of wearing CasiNO buttons and protesting down in Sprinfield, our industry here in Illinois would currently be as successful as Indiana, Ohio and Pennsylvania.
I think the Gas City guy(can't recall his name)also wanted to team up with the casinos. Then he bought in to a riverboat and quit the horses. Jim Curren drove his good FFA. Come from behind down that long SP Park streach.

THAT WAS BILL MCENERY AND THE HORSE WAS WIREGRASS KERRIGAN
Ed is definitely alive and kicking. Sure he will be in his black suit for his duties at Lexington yearling sale next week. Always friendly to talk with and has had a passion for the game. The gas city owner has definitely passed on. Teefy whole on the IHHA board always shared his thoughts on lack of leadership with those at the top and worthlessness lobbyist the purse account paid for.
