Confetti halts the Meadowlands
« on: August 01, 2026, 11:07:13 PM »
Race 11 has been delayed for 10 minutes now because the backstretch has to be cleared of confetti from fireworks at the stadium. I would think maybe the fireworks would have delayed races, but confetti? Horse race in snowstorms and rainstorms. Confetti is going to trip them up? Never would have thought it.

I can tell you never sat behind one and that's why I'll excuse this one.

However, stop by my farm one day and I'll let you jog one and then throw shredded paper in front of you and we'll see what you think! But your responsible for the horse!

I did jog a cheap horse I was part of 30 years ago on Del Insko's farm in northern Illinois. Would not think small shredded paper would spook them, but obviously you know. Thanks for the response.
