racing hits prime time

Well, sort of. It's a dreary night here, complete with some rather disconcerting thunder, so I decided to catch up on some TV viewing. I caught the following at the end of last week's House episode:

"I'll sacrifice 200 on a mudder at Monmouth Park"

This is not the first reference I've seen in the show. The season two episode "Deception" opens in an OTB where (naturally) someone collapses. If I recall correctly, there were some errors (ie. the tracks he was betting on weren't running at the time), but I still got a kick out of it.

Comments:
I love seeing racing references in main stream media... Law & Order has them ALL the time.

This week I watched about 2 minutes of Vegas out of curiosity and naturally there was a racing scene in the Sports Book. That one was less of a surprise.
 
You know, I wondered if anyone else had caught that...

P.S. I think you should post again sometime. It's fun ;)
