One shoe off, one shoe on, Runner Tom Von Ruden is a winner); I Trotted Out A Naked Lady (Racegoers did not always have bread but they had circuses when Promoter Bill Veeck took over at Suffolk Downs) The Departments – Scorecard; People; Baseball; Sporting Look; Bridge; Basketball; For The Record; 19th Hole
