Since you’re here, we know you’ll be doing it right. When you do hear or see something funny, add it to this blog by emailing quotes and pictures to ohpreak@gmail.com.
We’ll be posting submissions through Preakness Day. So, join us tomorrow in doing what Baltimore does best: laughing at itself.
Sun Talk: What’s your most ridiculous Preakness story?*
*That we can publish.
Everybody who’s been seems to have at least one. We’ll highlight some of the best in a future post.
If you have a story we can’t publish, flag us down on Saturday. Given all we’ve seen, it’s pretty hard to make us blush.
Caption This! Oh horsey…
From the Sun archives: Strike the Gold nibbles on a cardboard cut out of Queen Elizabeth II, at the Preakness barn Wednesday morning. May 1991.
