Sam Houston Raceway!

 When we first got to Texas we herd that the horse races where a pretty popular thing. We bought tickets on Groupon for 4 tickets for $12 it was awesome!! We took our friends Ashton and Ryan on a double date! it was so fun we were right there up close during all of the races yelling and cheering our hourse on!
I Think its funny/ sad because I love horses so much, but my husband is allergic to them. The raceway has all kinds of history and fake statues of horses..so when Jonny walked up to the statue he said, " Now this is my favorite kind of horse!" He just had to take a picture with it.

Now with races there is always a little betting going on, and Jonny and I wanted to test our luck!!! We set a limit of $20 for all 10 races and when its gone, its gone.... Well Jonny got really, really into it betting here and there winning some and losing some, around half way it happened. Jonny looked at the paper and just KNEW that #1 horse was going to win, so he jumped up and yelled, " ITS A SURE THING BABY" and ran away to bet. The thing was he ran away before he actually saw the horse before the race. Well that horse had a limp, he was defiantly not going to win. Jonny came back and told me that he bet the remanding money on the "Sure thing horse." This is a video of what happened!!!! 
 
Listen to the guy at the very end, "Dead Last"
