00:01:08,240 What's up y'all? 17 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:15,760 We are back with another episode of Travel Tales and Talks with Derek and Makayla, of course. 18 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:21,520 Baby, we have a wonderful October weekend and we made the decision to have, 19 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:26,320 we're going to have a jam packed Midwest October. 20 00:01:26,320 --> 00:01:28,160 And we decided to do a couple of things. 21 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:34,480 So I took time off from work and we went to the Kingland Fall Meet, Blink in Cincinnati. 22 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:42,240 We partake, partook into a Lexington soccer match, the Halloween Festival and Thriller Parade. 23 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:43,440 Yes, we did. 24 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,640 We had an amazing, how many days? 25 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,360 It's four days, more than 72 hours. 26 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:50,080 How many hours is that? 27 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:50,880 Do the math for me. 28 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:56,240 Thursday through Sunday, we had something going on. 29 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:57,760 We had a blast. 30 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:00,640 I was tired the following Monday. 31 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:01,520 Didn't want to go to work. 32 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,560 Good thing I had to work from home that day. 33 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,040 So let's start off on Thursday. 34 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,320 We made the decision to go to Kingland for the Fall Meet. 35 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,400 We love trying to win some money at the racetrack, but we never do. 36 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,520 I always lose. 37 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:19,200 It is so frustrating. 38 00:02:19,920 --> 00:02:25,200 But for those who don't know what Kingland is, Kingland is a racetrack here in Lexington. 39 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:30,480 It opened in 1936, in October of 1936. 40 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:34,240 It's the world's largest and most prominent thoroughbred auction house 41 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:38,800 and host world-class racing twice a day, which I mean twice a year, 42 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,160 which is the Fall Meet and the Spring Meet. 43 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,920 Spring Meet takes place in April from April 4th through the 25th 44 00:02:45,920 --> 00:02:47,680 and sometimes goes through the 26th. 45 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,520 Just depends on how the calendar falls. 46 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,760 So we went to the Fall Meet this year. 47 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:59,920 Just a word of advice for those who are listening, buy your tickets in advance. 48 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:04,880 Yes, because Derek had this idea that he was going to buy. 49 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:13,040 Well, okay, so you can just buy your tickets at the gate, but nine times out of ten, 50 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:18,880 they're the standing room only tickets, which you can bring your lawn chairs and things, 51 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:20,320 which is what we did. 52 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:25,680 But we wanted to sit in the stands with a pile of tickets. 53 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,800 So we can look down on the track and see everything. 54 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:36,080 This is an unusual year because on Thursday, they usually never sell out on Thursdays. 55 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:36,800 They were sold out. 56 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:37,600 They were sold out. 57 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:39,280 They were sold out. 58 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:40,080 So yay! 59 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:45,680 So we had to do the general admissions where we brought our own seats. 60 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:49,280 Yeah, which was good because we got to sit right up on the fence. 61 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:54,960 But, you know, keep in mind, you're going to have people standing all around you. 62 00:03:54,960 --> 00:04:03,280 And if you have a sensitivity to smoke, you're allowed to smoke out there. 63 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,520 So you got to put up, not put up with it. 64 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:06,240 That sounds so... 65 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:07,840 You do have to put up with it. 66 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,200 If you don't smoke, you're putting up with it. 67 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,760 Yeah, because it was hard on you, girl. 68 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:19,120 And then another thing in general admissions, you're subject to the weather. 69 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:20,720 You are subject to the weather because you're not covered. 70 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:23,840 And I went out there. 71 00:04:23,840 --> 00:04:25,040 It was a beautiful day. 72 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,840 I didn't think, oh, girl, get you a hat or... 73 00:04:29,840 --> 00:04:30,560 Some shades. 74 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:34,880 Because you would think, oh, racetrack, wear your fancy hat, right? 75 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:36,400 Well, let's be honest. 76 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:37,280 We normally... 77 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:46,000 You dress nice like you're business casual, but you don't bust out in your Sunday best 78 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,000 and your fancy hat unless you're going to... 79 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:48,640 The derby. 80 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:49,280 The derby. 81 00:04:49,280 --> 00:04:51,840 The derby happens in May in Louisville. 82 00:04:51,840 --> 00:04:58,560 However, sometimes, depending on the race, I know in the spring, everyone will wear their best. 83 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:09,200 In the spring, you will get the derby type dressing going on on a Thursday in Lexington. 84 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,360 But in October, in the fall... 85 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:12,880 It's a little more relaxed than what I've seen. 86 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:17,840 You'll get nice skirts, slacks, cowgirl boots and dresses, that kind of thing. 87 00:05:17,840 --> 00:05:23,120 But people will have on hats, but they're not the big fancy derby hats. 88 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,920 So I didn't even think to bring my hat this time. 89 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:27,520 I didn't even bring sunglasses. 90 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:32,960 So my poor retinas got towed up by the sun. 91 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:34,000 It was so bright. 92 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:38,960 Because you're looking into the sun from where you're sitting, where the stands are. 93 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:40,960 We were looking directly into the sun. 94 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,040 I ended up leaving early. 95 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,040 Just be aware to wear shades. 96 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,800 The grandstand and the seats are facing... 97 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:51,920 They're facing the sun. 98 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:53,520 They're facing east. 99 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:54,480 I mean west, I'm sorry. 100 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,040 Because when the sun sets, it's directly in your face. 101 00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:57,840 Yeah. 102 00:05:57,840 --> 00:05:58,960 So be aware of that. 103 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:07,440 London Rose and I, we ended up missing the last couple of races because we couldn't handle it. 104 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:09,600 We couldn't see anything. 105 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:13,440 But outside of that, let's give us more information about seating. 106 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:17,200 So GA, general admission, seven bucks. 107 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,200 Then there are benches there. 108 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:20,480 There's seating there. 109 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:24,000 But if you're not one of the first people there, you're going to be out of luck. 110 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:29,440 So bring your own chair if you're not there for the morning training session so you can 111 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:31,360 claim that bench for you and your family. 112 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:32,400 But bring your own seats. 113 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:34,880 Then you can have grandstand seating. 114 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:40,080 So the pricing on the grandstand seating, Wednesdays and Thursdays, it's 15 bucks. 115 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,080 Then of course on the weekend, it goes up to 25. 116 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:44,400 So Friday, Saturday, Sunday, it's 25 bucks. 117 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:50,240 And then on opening weekend, it's 30 bucks for grandstand seating no matter what. 118 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:54,320 And then you can get away from the common folk. 119 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:55,200 Oh, goodness. 120 00:06:55,200 --> 00:07:00,800 And go to the equestrian, which is casual ala cote dining from the first floor. 121 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:06,880 And I believe they start out like 50 bucks and it goes up by day. 122 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,280 So Wednesday, Thursday, it's like 50 bucks. 123 00:07:09,280 --> 00:07:10,800 Saturday and Sunday doubles. 124 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:12,960 And then on opening day, I think it triples. 125 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:14,560 So I mean opening weekend, sorry. 126 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:20,800 And then from there, you can go to the Phoenix room, which is more business casual attire. 127 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,800 It's indoor and it's on the fourth floor overlooking the paddock. 128 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:26,480 So where the horse is coming in at. 129 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:31,840 And then if you really want to get away from people, you want to have that VIP experience, 130 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,560 you want to go to the Lexington, Kentucky room. 131 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,360 It's formal dress code. 132 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:42,240 So it's formal indoor dining on the fourth floor overlooking the track. 133 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:44,880 You have to order your tickets early. 134 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:46,640 They sell out quick. 135 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:48,240 Those go super fast. 136 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:55,680 So if you're planning to come to the fall meet, get your tickets early, FYI. 137 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:57,760 Because I dropped the ball back. 138 00:07:57,760 --> 00:07:58,240 You did. 139 00:07:58,240 --> 00:07:58,960 I dropped the ball. 140 00:07:58,960 --> 00:07:59,760 I dropped the ball. 141 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,440 And one fun fact about Kingland that I didn't know, 142 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:08,960 they generate about $50 million in revenue in horse sales. 143 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:14,480 You remember when the guy announced this particular horse that was racing, I think, in like the third race. 144 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:18,080 So one pay like $650,000 for this horse. 145 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,080 Oh yeah, they tell the prices of the horses. 146 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,080 I was like, what? 147 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,520 That's twice the price of a house, three times the price of a house. 148 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,080 That is nuts for an animal. 149 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:35,040 For an animal, they paid $650,000 for one of them. 150 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,560 Not a whole stable, just one horse. 151 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:40,560 Amazing. 152 00:08:40,560 --> 00:08:41,680 It's a beautiful horse though. 153 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:43,600 And it won. 154 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:45,760 So paid out. 155 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,720 Because if they win enough races, they more than pay for themselves. 156 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:51,600 And you gotta keep in mind that people, 157 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:56,240 a lot of times people that own these horses don't even live here. 158 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,280 They purchase these horses and they... 159 00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:00,720 They will leave them here. 160 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,760 Yeah, I hate to say leave them here, but they'll leave them here with a trainer. 161 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:11,600 And the trainer will raise this horse, yada, yada, yada, and the owner will fly in at least twice a year, 162 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:15,920 but ideally more times a year to just check in on their investment. 163 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:16,800 Exactly. 164 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:18,000 Picking up what I'm putting down. 165 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:18,560 Exactly. 166 00:09:18,560 --> 00:09:19,680 And they have these auctions. 167 00:09:19,680 --> 00:09:21,120 These auctions don't happen every day. 168 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:22,960 It's four times a year. 169 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:28,080 So they're generating 50 million plus dollars out of four auctions. 170 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:32,640 Because Kingland is located directly across the street from the airport. 171 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,360 Like the airport, they face each other. 172 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:39,680 And so there's people, twice a year when we have these races... 173 00:09:39,680 --> 00:09:40,560 Private jet. 174 00:09:40,560 --> 00:09:42,160 They come in, they fly in. 175 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:46,640 They fly in and just shuttle across the street to see their horse run. 176 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:48,720 Then they get back on their private plane. 177 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:54,320 Oh, remember when we were going to Spain and we were in Philadelphia and the guy in front of us, 178 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:58,640 he had just left Lexington because of Kingland. 179 00:09:58,640 --> 00:09:59,440 Yeah, his horse. 180 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:00,160 His horse. 181 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,560 And I think his horse finished third. 182 00:10:02,560 --> 00:10:08,160 So the guy lived in Pennsylvania and he owned horses here in Kentucky. 183 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:10,560 He's like, yeah, I got two horses down here. 184 00:10:10,560 --> 00:10:13,120 I come down in April and October. 185 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,360 He's like, to check on my investment. 186 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:19,760 So Kingland horse racing, I love it. 187 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:20,800 I don't know about you. 188 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:21,920 It's a whole vibe. 189 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:26,160 I say at least come for one day. 190 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:27,680 Just come for once. 191 00:10:27,680 --> 00:10:31,440 Come to a horse race just once. 192 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:32,960 Because it's... 193 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:34,960 Bring some money. 194 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,200 Even if we don't always... 195 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,360 I'm looking at Derrick over here flexing. 196 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,440 Y'all, we don't always bet. 197 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:42,480 No, we don't. 198 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:43,760 A lot of times... 199 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:45,040 And it's not a lot of money. 200 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:46,080 You can bet 50 cents. 201 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:47,440 Yeah, we just come in. 202 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,160 It's literally just the vibe. 203 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:52,240 It is so much fun. 204 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:53,760 And it's fun to fake bet. 205 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:57,200 We'll sit there and try out the different combinations. 206 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,200 And normally, Derrick will guess right. 207 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,280 And I'm like, why didn't you put money on that one? 208 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:04,000 Because he's like, when I put money on it, it don't win. 209 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:10,000 The last three races, horse number three and number four were hot in the last three races. 210 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:16,320 Okay, I said, okay, I'll do three and four and nine and 12 were always placing in the 211 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:17,320 top four. 212 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,440 So what they do, they change the numbers on the horses. 213 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:22,400 Horses are different, but the numbers are the same. 214 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:26,720 And the horses that had number three and four were one and two, one and two, flip-flopping. 215 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:27,720 Right? 216 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:29,720 So when y'all left, I made... 217 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:31,760 I think I made a 50 cent bet. 218 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,480 Tri-factor, super tri-factor. 219 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:36,000 Three and four place. 220 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,080 Nine and 11 were always in the top. 221 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:44,320 Three and four, those two horses in the last three races didn't place at all. 222 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:49,720 So I got three and four right, but my other two picks, my super factor, never hit because 223 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:55,920 nine and 11 all of a sudden stopped placing and hitting third and fourth or whatever. 224 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:57,400 Was it win show place? 225 00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:03,200 So nine and 11 stopped showing and being in fourth place. 226 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,280 And there was seven and eight started showing up. 227 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,120 So anyway, bring a little money. 228 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,000 You don't need a lot of money. 229 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,820 You can make a 50 cent bet, pick a winner. 230 00:12:14,820 --> 00:12:19,400 You can make a dollar bet, super factor, tri-factor. 231 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:20,840 It's not a whole lot of money. 232 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:24,920 If your head is swimming like mine, yeah, I don't even bet. 233 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,120 I come to eat. 234 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,240 I have my money for the concession. 235 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,240 Yeah, or the restaurant. 236 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:34,480 Yeah, and they have a kid zone. 237 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,160 So London Rose is a member of the kid zone. 238 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,120 When we first moved here, we signed her up. 239 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:40,120 We sure did. 240 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,560 And on Saturdays, she's able to go in and- 241 00:12:42,560 --> 00:12:45,760 Watch them train in the morning. 242 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:49,240 Uh-huh, and hang out with the horse mascot. 243 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:50,240 It's real cute. 244 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:51,240 Kingly does have a mascot. 245 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:52,240 I forgot about that. 246 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:53,240 All right. 247 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:56,440 Let's talk a little bit about what we did on Friday. 248 00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:57,440 Friday. 249 00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:58,440 Yeah. 250 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,440 So we take the day off again. 251 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,880 No, did I go to work that day? 252 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:03,880 I went to work on Friday. 253 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:04,880 You did a half day. 254 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:09,120 I did a half day, and then we got in the car and we went up to Cincinnati. 255 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:13,400 For us, Cincinnati is about an hour and 30 minutes from us. 256 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:18,400 And call out here, we should have knew that there was going to be traffic, so we should 257 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:19,400 have left earlier. 258 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:24,760 Because we sat on the interstate for 30, 45 minutes trying to get into, and we were already 259 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:25,760 behind. 260 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:30,880 But anyway, so we go to Cincinnati for, it's called Blink Cincinnati. 261 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:35,280 And it takes place in Cincinnati, and it's the nation's largest public light and art 262 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:36,280 event. 263 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:44,400 So they use light to create art on the landscape or the cityscape of downtown Cincinnati. 264 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:48,520 And I will never forget the first time we went to Blink. 265 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:52,320 It was so freaking cold. 266 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:53,680 Like my face froze. 267 00:13:53,680 --> 00:13:55,320 Remember that? 268 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:56,320 I remember. 269 00:13:56,320 --> 00:14:01,880 Because it's on the water and the wind was blowing, and in that year, they had a lot 270 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,640 of their art installations on the water. 271 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:05,640 On the water. 272 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:14,600 So you're thinking Ohio and mid October, it's going to be cold. 273 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:16,560 But not that cold. 274 00:14:16,560 --> 00:14:18,400 And we were not dressed well. 275 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,680 I had on leather gloves. 276 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:22,360 I had on a skull cap. 277 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:23,360 And it just wasn't enough. 278 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:24,360 It wasn't enough. 279 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:28,680 I needed to wear an abrigo, like a heavy coat. 280 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,800 I needed a trench bubble coat. 281 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:33,640 You remember triple fat goose? 282 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:34,640 Yes. 283 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:36,960 I needed a triple fat goose coat. 284 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:40,640 I think I had on a nautica jacket and a hat. 285 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,600 I was like, what is going on? 286 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:46,280 It was so freaking cold. 287 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:48,760 But this year, perfect weather. 288 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:54,720 They didn't have a lot of art installations on the actual river, but they were scattered 289 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:56,800 throughout downtown. 290 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,400 And the weather was really nice. 291 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:02,040 It was perfect for October. 292 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:03,920 Yeah, it was nice. 293 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:08,880 All I needed was a light jacket, hat, my skull cap, my gloves. 294 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:10,480 And even then, I was a little warm. 295 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:11,480 There was no wind. 296 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:12,480 No wind. 297 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:13,480 No. 298 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:16,920 I think it was probably about 65 degrees. 299 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:18,400 It was perfect. 300 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:19,680 Clear skies. 301 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,960 So you could see the drone display from the river. 302 00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:23,960 Yes. 303 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:27,360 So tell them a little bit about the drone display. 304 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:28,960 We saw it while we were sitting in traffic. 305 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:36,880 So this year, they used drones as part of the light show, where they would use the drones 306 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:43,520 to have art in the sky over the Ohio River and over downtown Cincinnati. 307 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:44,840 I've never seen that before. 308 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:45,840 I haven't either. 309 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:46,840 So picture fireworks. 310 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,880 You know how fireworks are up high? 311 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:56,680 It's like a firework that's brought down to almost your eye level in the sky. 312 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:58,360 That's exactly what it looked like. 313 00:15:58,360 --> 00:15:59,760 A fireworks show with drones. 314 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:06,920 Like a low level, but you get eye level fireworks. 315 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:10,400 So you don't have to really look up into the sky. 316 00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:14,840 So these lights were flush with the buildings. 317 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:16,360 The drones. 318 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:26,360 And then they would use projections onto the skyscrapers to show their artwork via lights. 319 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:30,120 So they had this one where we're walking down, I forget the name of the street, might have 320 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:35,760 been race or something, where they had the astronaut and was it? 321 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:36,760 ET. 322 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:37,760 ET? 323 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:39,320 That was cool. 324 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,960 In front of the golf carts that had eyeballs. 325 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:47,800 So the golf carts looked like they were blinking and frowning at you. 326 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:48,800 Like cars. 327 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:50,840 It was like real life cars. 328 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:53,440 But they did it all with lights. 329 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:56,240 My favorite was this one building. 330 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,800 It had a huge clock countdown. 331 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:04,920 And when it countdown to zero, the building looked like it was transforming. 332 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:05,920 Like a transformer. 333 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,360 It looked like a Rubik's Cube. 334 00:17:08,360 --> 00:17:09,360 Rubik's Cube, yeah. 335 00:17:09,360 --> 00:17:10,360 That was so cool. 336 00:17:10,360 --> 00:17:16,080 And then they had the one where we went past the red light district, is what I call it, 337 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,640 where they had these red lights down this alley. 338 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:24,000 But before we went down that red light district, there was this building that looked like a 339 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:28,080 lizard was walking up and down the building with the lights. 340 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:29,080 That was cool. 341 00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:30,960 Very creative. 342 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:35,680 And then we went down the red light district, as I call it, to the DJ. 343 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:36,680 There was this alley. 344 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:37,680 It was a legit alley. 345 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:38,680 It was an alley. 346 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:40,040 It looked like a scene out of Blade. 347 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:41,040 Blade. 348 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:44,520 I said, they're going to be playing that music from Blade, and then it's going to start raining 349 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:45,520 blood. 350 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:49,800 The guy really did have music that sounded like it should have been on the Blade soundtrack. 351 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:55,720 And you're talking about hundreds of people walking down this alley and music down. 352 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,280 Techno music. 353 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:02,960 With this red light, it is like, man, we could literally be marching to our deaths, but we're 354 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:04,400 going to have fun doing it, right? 355 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:05,880 Because I was like, let's go. 356 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:07,760 Yeah, let's go down there. 357 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:13,240 Because halfway down this alley, there's this creepy door. 358 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:18,480 The door looked like it came from a scene out of Hansel and Gretel story. 359 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:23,320 Is that the door that leads to the witch that eat the kids? 360 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:26,240 It was beautiful, but it was- Very unwise decision on our part. 361 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:30,240 It looked like at any moment a creepy hand was going to come out and grab us to that 362 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:31,240 techno music. 363 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:34,640 It felt like we were going to be on Blade 4. 364 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:35,640 It did. 365 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:38,520 It felt like a scene from Blade 4. 366 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:45,560 And then when we passed it, there was a DJ set up in that alleyway and he had a headset 367 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:46,560 on. 368 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:47,560 Headset. 369 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:48,560 Everything. 370 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:52,760 It looked like he was copying the guy from Blade, but it was so awesome. 371 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,560 I almost forgot that London Rose went to the club with us. 372 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,880 Oh yeah, we went to the club. 373 00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:00,800 Hey, we didn't realize it. 374 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:03,360 It was Family Fun night before nine o'clock. 375 00:19:03,360 --> 00:19:05,080 Right, and we got in right before nine. 376 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:13,600 Yup, we got in there about 848 because London Rose went in there and they had a silk dancer 377 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:14,600 from the- 378 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:15,600 Later from the ceiling. 379 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:16,600 Yeah, what was it called? 380 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,400 Silk drapes from the ceiling and she was swinging. 381 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:20,720 She was dressed like Harley Quinn. 382 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:21,720 Harley Quinn, yep. 383 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:25,920 And then they was serving alcoholic beverages. 384 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:26,920 I didn't even realize it. 385 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:28,920 We brought our 12 year olds into the club. 386 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:30,960 Because we had the Joker in there. 387 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:32,640 He did a really good job, that Joker. 388 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:33,640 He did, he did. 389 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:37,920 And they had their music playing and London Rose, you couldn't tell her, oh we took pictures. 390 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:39,960 We did our photo shoot with the- 391 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:40,960 You know, with the circle. 392 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:41,960 Circular. 393 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:46,520 And then the moment we stepped out, another family tried to come in with their kid. 394 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:48,160 It was like, no kids allowed. 395 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:49,960 They looked over at us and we were like- 396 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:51,680 Hey, we were here earlier guys. 397 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:52,680 You missed the cutoff. 398 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:53,680 You missed curfew. 399 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:54,680 They said nine o'clock, no kids allowed. 400 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:55,680 No kids. 401 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:56,680 I was like, man, I didn't realize it was that late. 402 00:19:56,680 --> 00:20:00,680 We were in there doing that Jersey, New Jersey pump, the pump fist. 403 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:01,680 Yeah, we had a good time. 404 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:03,720 She didn't know what to do. 405 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:04,720 I'm like, London Rose, loosen up. 406 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:05,720 She ain't no my bank of shelter. 407 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:06,720 She act like a little square from Delaware. 408 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:07,720 Oh my gosh. 409 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:15,720 But the good thing about, great thing I love about Blink, Blink Cincinnati. 410 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,600 So they have six different zones. 411 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:21,460 And each zone has a different theme. 412 00:20:21,460 --> 00:20:26,800 And we mostly did the downtown and the banks, which is the banks of the Ohio. 413 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:33,760 So you have the Flinley market, OTR, downtown, the banks, Covington, which is Covington, 414 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:38,280 Kentucky, Northern Kentucky and Cincinnati border each other and Newport. 415 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:44,480 So each zone will have something different, but we spend most of our time in the downtown 416 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:47,080 and the banks zone. 417 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:51,040 One call out I would say that we probably should have took advantage of, free public 418 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:52,200 transportation. 419 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:57,240 We should have parked and we could have got on the train and went to the different zones. 420 00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:00,720 We could have took Tank over to Northern Kentucky. 421 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:03,920 Tank is their bus system in Northern Kentucky. 422 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,440 But yeah, I had a blast. 423 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:07,440 I think London Rose had a blast. 424 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:08,440 You had a blast? 425 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:13,520 Yeah, I had a good time because Aliyana, our oldest child, was with us as well. 426 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:19,440 And I like that there were lots of vendors, food vendors. 427 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:27,280 And I love that they had workers handing out blinking lights. 428 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:36,920 So they had, you know, the necklaces and we got like little green hearts that blinked, 429 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:37,920 which was pretty cool. 430 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:38,920 And we missed the parade. 431 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:39,920 For free. 432 00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:40,920 And we missed the parade. 433 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:41,920 There was a whole parade? 434 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:42,920 There was an opening parade. 435 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:43,920 Oh snap. 436 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:45,920 So we missed on the parade. 437 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,200 I'm distraught. 438 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:50,600 But yeah, it starts out with the parade. 439 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,840 I think it starts the first night. 440 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:55,720 I think the parade starts at like seven or something. 441 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,000 We have to make sure we make that parade next year. 442 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:02,480 Yeah, we have to leave earlier this time. 443 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,800 Or spend the night. 444 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,640 You know how we do it? 445 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:09,640 Something like that. 446 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:11,800 On to Saturday. 447 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:14,000 From Saturday, we spent most of the day. 448 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:18,440 We'd London Rose have practice for Charlotte's Web, her play on Saturday. 449 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:19,440 Swim. 450 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:20,440 She had swim practice. 451 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:24,160 So I mean, you and I just laid around the house and just chilled until game. 452 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:27,000 Well, was it match night for soccer? 453 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:31,560 You know, got me caught up on my match, my soccer lingo since you're a coach. 454 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:36,320 Lexington has a soccer team now. 455 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:38,080 Lexington SC. 456 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:39,080 This is Derrick's thing. 457 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:41,600 I don't know why he's like looking at me like talk about it baby. 458 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:43,560 You started talking so I thought you were going to speak on it. 459 00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:45,240 So we actually have two teams. 460 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,040 We have a men's and a women's. 461 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:52,280 So we have Lexington SC Sporting Club is what the SC stands for. 462 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:58,960 They play in the USL one, which is third tier in the US soccer pyramid. 463 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:05,160 But the next next year in 2025, they're going to move up to the USL championship. 464 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:07,960 They have an amazing stadium. 465 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,400 I thought I think it's awesome. 466 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:12,160 The men play there as well as the women. 467 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:15,840 The women play in the USL Super League. 468 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:22,280 Now that being said, Coach Makayla, for those who don't know Makayla coach soccer in high 469 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:23,280 school. 470 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:26,280 We're going to talk about soccer play many moons ago. 471 00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:29,560 You better get on with it. 472 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:33,080 We both were talking about it because I got into soccer in what 2018. 473 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:37,040 I guess the Russian World Cup whenever they had the World Cup in Russia. 474 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:44,480 That's when I really, really got into soccer or football and I noticed that Saturday night 475 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:46,800 their lines were off. 476 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:52,400 They were not making runs to the box when they had I was like, what are they doing? 477 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,960 There were several shots that they should have took that it didn't take. 478 00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:57,280 The passing was not great. 479 00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:59,280 What are your thoughts, coach? 480 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:00,280 Oh my gosh. 481 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:01,280 I don't know. 482 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:06,840 My main thing I noticed was the fact that they weren't keeping triangles. 483 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:10,080 You know, soccer is a passing sport. 484 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:15,200 There's a lot of passing going on and the ways that you make these passes. 485 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:16,200 Yes. 486 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:19,400 Is you set up triangles. 487 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:23,160 Groups of three people form a triangle always. 488 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:24,880 And you're constantly moving. 489 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:26,760 Always moving. 490 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:29,800 Your feet should always be moving. 491 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:39,320 And I noticed a lot of people a few times on the field, the teams would, what's the 492 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:40,600 word? 493 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,640 They wouldn't support their teammates as they should. 494 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:45,320 They were not staying within the triangle. 495 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:52,400 So there were players that would instinctively make moves that normally you would think at 496 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:55,120 a professional level should happen. 497 00:24:55,120 --> 00:25:01,400 They should be able to blind kick in a direction here or there and hit one of their teammates 498 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:05,680 because their teammates should be in that triangle. 499 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:10,320 And more times than not, their teammates wouldn't be there and they would turn over the balls. 500 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:13,040 And most people would be like, why did he kick over there? 501 00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:14,040 Wasn't no one there? 502 00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:18,720 I was like, well, the idea is that these are professional athletes. 503 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:21,840 There should have been a person there. 504 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:25,800 Just like when when when Lexington scored, then I think they're playing Charlotte. 505 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:31,240 Charlotte came right back and scored because they left two guys unmarked in the box. 506 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:32,240 That's a no-no. 507 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:33,240 They were just down there by themselves playing. 508 00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:34,240 What are you doing? 509 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:35,240 I don't know. 510 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:41,280 I was just amazed at, well, first of all, let me just put out there, I had a great time 511 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:42,840 at the game. 512 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:52,740 It took me about 10, 15 minutes into the game to realize that our team was not performing 513 00:25:52,740 --> 00:25:54,920 at the level I felt like they should. 514 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,480 I was like, these are professional athletes. 515 00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:01,720 I feel like I'm watching a high school team play with some of the because of the mistakes 516 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:03,080 that I was saying. 517 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:11,440 So I was a little disappointed by that, but I was very pleased with everything else. 518 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:13,160 Yes, nice stadium. 519 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:15,360 The concessions were reasonably priced. 520 00:26:15,360 --> 00:26:17,640 Yeah, they were good pricing. 521 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:21,880 Of course, of course, the paraphernalia, the gift shop. 522 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:23,560 Yeah, it was expensive. 523 00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:25,080 Like Derek wanted this horse hat. 524 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:28,080 I really wanted to have that horse hat. 525 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:29,080 It was $40. 526 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:30,080 Yes. 527 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:31,080 Yeah. 528 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:32,080 Is this styrofoam? 529 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:33,080 It was it was made out of felt. 530 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:34,080 Felt. 531 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,920 I was like, man, you guys spent. 532 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:41,000 Not felt, foam, foam paper, like foam paper. 533 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:44,440 Yes, it cost them probably three cents to make it. 534 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,000 And you gonna charge me 40 bucks? 535 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:49,040 I was I was a little disappointed. 536 00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:51,280 If it would have been 20, I would have bought it. 537 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:52,280 40. 538 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:53,640 I know what you paid for it. 539 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:55,360 I know what it costs to make that. 540 00:26:55,360 --> 00:26:56,360 You know I know. 541 00:26:56,360 --> 00:26:57,840 Yeah, it was a little a little pricey. 542 00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:02,800 I understand you got to drive revenue, but I think you would sell more horse hats if 543 00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:04,800 they were 20, 25 bucks. 544 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:05,800 Yeah. 545 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:06,800 $40. 546 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:09,920 I just go buy a hat or I buy a shirt. 547 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:11,360 I'm not going to buy a piece of styrofoam. 548 00:27:11,360 --> 00:27:13,880 I want to know how much those tickets were. 549 00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:14,880 Our tickets? 550 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:15,880 Yeah. 551 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,720 So our tickets were $25 apiece. 552 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:27,520 Now this is one thing I'm upset about because where we were sitting all on that side, all 553 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,760 those empty seats, I was like, this wasn't online. 554 00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:30,760 That seat wasn't online. 555 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:31,760 None of those seats were online. 556 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:32,760 Like why didn't they pull up? 557 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:33,760 I don't know. 558 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:35,800 Why didn't all those seats pulled up? 559 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:40,960 From my understanding, when Derrick went looking for the tickets, it showed out most of it 560 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:41,960 was like sold out. 561 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:46,200 It showed that, hey, these seats are unavailable. 562 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:52,240 Most of the seats were blocked out, but in our section, maybe 10 seats were filled? 563 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:53,240 Something like that. 564 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:54,240 Yeah, because it was us. 565 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:58,320 It was three little girls out to the side, the four in the front. 566 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:03,600 It was at the end of the night they said 3,000 people were there. 567 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:04,600 Really? 568 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:05,600 Yeah. 569 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:06,600 Okay. 570 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:07,600 It holds 7,500. 571 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:08,600 Oh, okay. 572 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:12,200 Because it just felt very empty. 573 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:16,640 But you know me, I don't really, I enjoy not big crowds. 574 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:21,520 I'm upset because I could have got better seats, but I don't know where they... Maybe 575 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,360 I should have bought the seats at the gate because I bought them online. 576 00:28:24,360 --> 00:28:27,560 I will tell you this, the people that were there were hype. 577 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:29,320 They had this one section. 578 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,320 They were blowing smoke. 579 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:34,080 Loneroll said, I want to sit over there. 580 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,560 They had dragon fire blowing. 581 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:41,680 I was looking like, I'm pretty sure we can just walk over there at this point. 582 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:42,680 You know what? 583 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,960 I know where to sit next time because they were crunk. 584 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:46,960 They were crunk. 585 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:49,560 Kick off to the last whistle. 586 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:53,200 They were on it. 587 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:55,360 So that was the close of Saturday. 588 00:28:55,360 --> 00:29:02,520 But before we close out Saturday, I'm going to take Lonerolls to some women's league games. 589 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:04,680 And they happened during the winter time. 590 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:06,560 Oh no, we not. 591 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:11,480 Mind you, this stadium is outside and it's not a dome. 592 00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:12,480 So let's see. 593 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:16,160 I think the next home match is December or something. 594 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:17,160 So nice. 595 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:18,160 December 2nd. 596 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:19,960 I'm like, ooh, it's going to be cold. 597 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:21,560 You ain't going to have my baby in the cold. 598 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:24,720 I'm going to have her get dressed up, put on full pair of socks. 599 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:25,720 We'll be dressed for it. 600 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:26,720 That'll be a no. 601 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:27,720 And hot cocoa. 602 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:28,720 And hot cocoa. 603 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:31,720 We going to talk about Sunday. 604 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:33,800 I'll let you talk about Sunday. 605 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:34,800 This your thing. 606 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:38,040 You love this festival. 607 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:46,520 So Sunday, we wrapped up our weekend with the Lexington, Kentucky Halloween Festival 608 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:49,040 and Thriller Parade. 609 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:50,040 Thriller. 610 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:51,040 Yes. 611 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:55,240 So this is an annual tradition. 612 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:58,800 It has become a local must do event. 613 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:00,760 So for real, for real, must do. 614 00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:07,800 There is no need for you to have to rush to Salem, Massachusetts and what's the word? 615 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:08,800 Sleepy Hollow. 616 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:09,800 Sleepy Hollow. 617 00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:10,800 New York, right? 618 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:11,800 You can come to Lexington. 619 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:16,600 You can just have your Halloween fun here in the Midwest. 620 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:17,600 Yes. 621 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:18,600 In Lexington, Kentucky. 622 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:19,600 Absolutely. 623 00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:22,600 I don't know why I'm talking like that, y'all. 624 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:27,960 I don't know because you in the festival Halloween stage. 625 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:35,120 So normally like the third weekend in October, they have this variety show, this Halloween 626 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:36,600 variety show. 627 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:38,120 I think I figured it out. 628 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:39,120 What? 629 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:41,960 They hold this festival the same weekend as Scarefest. 630 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:44,240 Oh yeah, we forgot about Scarefest. 631 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:45,240 So Scarefest. 632 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:47,040 Because I realized it the other day. 633 00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:49,880 I'm like, wait a minute, Scarefest and this are all the same weekend. 634 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:55,520 So okay, well let me introduce Scarefest is like this big Halloween. 635 00:30:55,520 --> 00:31:00,200 I hate to say Halloween, it's like scary movie conference. 636 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:01,200 It's like Comic-Con. 637 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:05,160 Yeah, it's like Comic-Con for scary movies. 638 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:10,960 So they'll have speakers from like Five Nights at Freddy, Vampire Diaries. 639 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:13,920 I think Hellboy was here a couple of years ago or something. 640 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:14,920 So yeah. 641 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:17,360 They'll have booths set up. 642 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:21,960 They'll sell costumes, socks, handbags, everything spooky. 643 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:24,240 Everything spooky in Halloween. 644 00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:28,080 Wasn't this year somebody from Scream spoke on a panel? 645 00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:33,720 No, I think Scream and the guy from Walking Dead, he was actually in the parade. 646 00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:35,320 He was on one of the floats. 647 00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:40,480 I think one of the producers or one of the writers for the Walking Dead, he was here. 648 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:42,200 On a Walking Dead, yeah. 649 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,760 So Scarefest is huge. 650 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:45,760 It is huge. 651 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:49,320 It's in Rep Arena and that's where the UK Wildcats play basketball. 652 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:50,880 So you know it's big. 653 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:57,200 And it lasts the whole weekend and with Scarefest, Sunday is Children's Day. 654 00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:01,000 So they kind of tone it down just a little bit for the kids. 655 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:06,200 And so right after you leave Scarefest, you just come up a couple of city blocks and you're 656 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:12,360 ready for the Halloween variety show. 657 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:16,560 And they have vendors out there, all sorts of food. 658 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:21,200 And what happens is they have different groups performing. 659 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:22,200 Dance groups, yeah. 660 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:26,160 Different dance groups all over the area, dancing, performing. 661 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:28,440 On stage, right in front of the courthouse. 662 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:29,440 I know, right? 663 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:34,200 So if you start something, you don't have far to walk. 664 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:39,660 And as soon as the variety show ends, the Thriller Parade happens. 665 00:32:39,660 --> 00:32:41,160 And so there are floats. 666 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:45,880 And most times the people that were in the variety show, they'll get on their floats 667 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:52,000 or they'll get in their parade formation and they'll parade on down Main Street. 668 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:56,960 And at the end of the parade, that's when we have the zombies come out. 669 00:32:56,960 --> 00:33:02,720 And it is the Michael Jackson's Thriller Dance. 670 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:06,360 They act out the whole Thriller video. 671 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:08,760 The whole thing. 672 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:13,360 We're talking about from when Michael Jackson is walking down the street. 673 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:14,360 With his girlfriend. 674 00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:17,320 And she has on the little blue outfit. 675 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:20,240 And before he turns into the werewolf thing. 676 00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:24,200 But instead of him going into the werewolf, he goes straight into the zombie. 677 00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:26,440 And then they start the... 678 00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:27,440 Right? 679 00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:33,560 And they literally do that whole scene over and over again. 680 00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:34,920 All the way up Main Street. 681 00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:36,200 How do I know? 682 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:41,520 Because the first year that we moved here, I had the bright idea that me and my baby, 683 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:44,240 we gonna dance in the Thriller Parade. 684 00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,840 Because look, y'all, they have actual dance lessons. 685 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,760 Oh, you have to attend at least one to participate. 686 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:50,760 Yeah. 687 00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:51,760 And you pay for these lessons, right? 688 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:55,240 You gonna pay these people for their time to teach you this Thriller routine. 689 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:56,240 So at the time... 690 00:33:56,240 --> 00:34:00,800 It's really not, baby, for real, it's really not a massive chunk of time. 691 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:07,600 You have to participate in one practice and they're held on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays. 692 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:08,680 And the cost... 693 00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:15,440 So if you're a new dancer, it's 16 bucks from ages 13 and over, ages 7 to 12, it's 11 bucks. 694 00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:18,120 Now you do get a discount if you are returning. 695 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:24,160 If you're a returning dancer, it's just eight bucks for 13 and over and six bucks for seven 696 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:25,160 through 12. 697 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:30,400 And then also there is a staging rehearsal on the... 698 00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:33,680 Like a couple of days before the event that you must attend at least one. 699 00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:34,680 Yeah. 700 00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:36,680 But outside of that, you don't have to spend a lot of time. 701 00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:42,000 So basically, you could have just watched a Thriller dance from off of YouTube and learned 702 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:43,000 it that way. 703 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:48,040 But it was a lot of fun to go to the practices and you meet people. 704 00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:50,640 And they literally break down this dance routine. 705 00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:52,200 And me and London Rose, we went to... 706 00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:57,240 I tell y'all, we went to every last one of them doggone practices. 707 00:34:57,240 --> 00:35:04,560 And then we got into the parade, made it up half the block and my hip just like was on 708 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:05,560 fire. 709 00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:07,080 I was like, what is this? 710 00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:09,440 You didn't realize how long Main Street is. 711 00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:10,440 I didn't realize. 712 00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:13,680 I mean, because we thinking we like really making ground. 713 00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:14,680 Nope. 714 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:15,680 Nope. 715 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:16,680 Because you walking like a zombie. 716 00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:17,680 You can't run. 717 00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:20,840 You got to do the zombie thing all the way to the end of the parade. 718 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:23,960 So we never made it to the end. 719 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:26,160 Derrick snatched me up out the parade. 720 00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:28,160 Like I could tell you was hurt. 721 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:31,200 Man, she was five or six steps into it. 722 00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:33,200 She's like, oh, I gotta go. 723 00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:35,000 My hip, my hip. 724 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:44,640 But what's so fun about it is that before like when the variety show was taking place, 725 00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:51,760 all of these zombies and we're talking about a couple of hundred people. 726 00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:56,240 Our first year was a couple of thousand because they really wasn't regulating like that. 727 00:35:56,240 --> 00:36:01,000 So it's like all these folks that kind of jumped in the parade, but which is what my 728 00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:02,400 plan was to do this year. 729 00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:03,400 I was like... 730 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:04,400 I forgot about that. 731 00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:07,040 We ain't got to do these practices. 732 00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:09,080 We can just jump in like the little folk did. 733 00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:10,080 Wrong. 734 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:11,280 They had barricades up. 735 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:13,000 It was super organized. 736 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:16,160 I was like, oh, I'm not going to try them this year. 737 00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:17,160 So we didn't jump in. 738 00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:19,680 But let me go back. 739 00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:24,800 So what I love about it is like during the variety show, all of the zombies that are 740 00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:29,800 going to be in the parade, they go find their spots on the street. 741 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:31,680 They find their group. 742 00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:32,680 Yeah. 743 00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:37,880 They lay out on the sidewalks, on buildings as if people have died. 744 00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:46,080 So you walk up and down Main Street, you see like all these dead people all over the place. 745 00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:52,300 And so what happens is they'll lay there all the way through the parade until they hear 746 00:36:52,300 --> 00:37:01,320 darkness falls and they'll wake up off the street and they will drag themselves out into 747 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:05,240 the parade route and then they'll do their Thriller dance all the way down. 748 00:37:05,240 --> 00:37:07,480 It is quite... 749 00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:08,480 It is very good. 750 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:09,480 Yeah. 751 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:10,480 It is very good. 752 00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:13,560 It is considered a top 10 Halloween destination. 753 00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:14,560 In the US. 754 00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:22,280 And then my girl Oprah, Oprah magazine, featured it in the top 25 best Halloween festivals 755 00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:23,740 in the United States. 756 00:37:23,740 --> 00:37:25,680 So it's for real, for real. 757 00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:30,520 And that was USA Today named it top 10 Halloween destination. 758 00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:35,960 So you guys gotta look, come hit us up next year. 759 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:37,920 We have already said that we're going to participate. 760 00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:38,920 Yeah. 761 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:39,920 We're going to do the lessons. 762 00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:44,320 That means I'm going to have to stop practicing now. 763 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:48,160 Because let me tell y'all that our first year I made it through all the lessons. 764 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:53,320 I made it a fourth of the way down the parade. 765 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,320 So then the next year... 766 00:37:55,320 --> 00:38:00,760 It's so funny because she thought maybe you performed one time and you were done, a new 767 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:03,920 group comes in, but no, you gotta go from beginning to the end. 768 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:05,600 And then I picked the back of the group. 769 00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:06,840 You were at the last one. 770 00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:07,840 The last group. 771 00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:11,760 Because like I said, the different groups are sprinkled throughout the parade route 772 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:15,840 so that the whole parade route is filled with zombies at the same time. 773 00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:19,060 I picked the back so it means I had to go the whole way. 774 00:38:19,060 --> 00:38:22,480 So the next year, meal on the road, rolled up. 775 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:27,480 I paid my money to do the parade because at the time it was $12 to participate. 776 00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:30,400 I paid $12 for me, $12 for her. 777 00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:36,320 And we literally got through 10 minutes of rehearsal and my darn hip. 778 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:40,000 And I said, you know what? 779 00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:41,000 It's not going to work. 780 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:42,000 Yeah. 781 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:43,000 She tapped out. 782 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:44,000 So I tapped out during rehearsal. 783 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:45,440 They gave me my money back. 784 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:47,160 Thank you for your time, ma'am. 785 00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:49,560 And I just rolled off into the sunset. 786 00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:50,560 Yeah. 787 00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:51,560 But yeah. 788 00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:52,560 It's for real. 789 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:57,800 I mean, the Michael Jacksons they picked this year were really into it. 790 00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,400 The one guy actually looked like Michael Jackson. 791 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:03,240 I was like, is that Michael for real? 792 00:39:03,240 --> 00:39:04,240 Yeah. 793 00:39:04,240 --> 00:39:07,040 I don't know if that was his skin or he painted his face. 794 00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:08,760 He looked like Michael Jackson. 795 00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:13,280 There's this one guy who's been doing it for the past 10, 12 years. 796 00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:15,360 I think that was him. 797 00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:17,760 And then they have some new ones that joined. 798 00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:21,400 Because the year that we did it, there was only one Michael. 799 00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:22,400 He did it the whole way. 800 00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:24,520 And it was that same guy. 801 00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:26,680 And he is from Eastern Kentucky. 802 00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:28,200 Oh, boy. 803 00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:31,240 So that's the crazy part. 804 00:39:31,240 --> 00:39:37,380 So we have some honorable mentions. 805 00:39:37,380 --> 00:39:41,720 We have the McConnell Springs Jack-O-Lantern Trail. 806 00:39:41,720 --> 00:39:42,720 Yeah. 807 00:39:42,720 --> 00:39:46,800 It's actually going on this weekend. 808 00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:57,680 And what it is is that residents from all over Lexington carve jack-o-lanterns. 809 00:39:57,680 --> 00:39:59,480 And they donate it to McConnell Springs. 810 00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:02,880 And they sprinkle the whole... 811 00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,560 McConnell Springs is a park. 812 00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:08,240 I just assume the park staff did that. 813 00:40:08,240 --> 00:40:09,240 No. 814 00:40:09,240 --> 00:40:12,000 And it's a beautiful park. 815 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:13,000 It's like in the woods. 816 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:17,640 And then they have paths along water. 817 00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:18,640 It's beautiful. 818 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:21,600 It's a beautiful park surrounded by all these buildings. 819 00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:23,920 And once you go in the park, you don't even see it. 820 00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:25,320 It looks like you're in the woods. 821 00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:27,720 It's just tucked off behind all this industry. 822 00:40:27,720 --> 00:40:29,680 It reminds you of a tropical paradise. 823 00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:30,680 It does. 824 00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:32,920 Tropical bears, birds, and fruits. 825 00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:38,560 But I went before... 826 00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:41,000 We did the Star Wars thing. 827 00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:44,240 And the year that I went, no one in my family wanted to go with me. 828 00:40:44,240 --> 00:40:47,640 And I was like, man, okay, well, I'm just going to go by myself. 829 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:49,920 And it's at the dead of night. 830 00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:55,000 And all you see are just these elaborate pumpkins. 831 00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:59,680 I mean, these people go all out, all out. 832 00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:00,680 And they're so beautiful. 833 00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:03,120 And it's just... 834 00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:04,120 Something we should do. 835 00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:05,120 Yeah. 836 00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:14,680 And Louisville has a jack-o-lantern spectacular, which is just like McConnell Springs, except 837 00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:17,240 it is massive. 838 00:41:17,240 --> 00:41:21,960 Where McConnell Springs might have a thousand carved jack-o-lanterns. 839 00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:30,720 And Louisville, they have like 5,000 artistically carved pumpkins in themed settings. 840 00:41:30,720 --> 00:41:35,280 They call it a luminary art... 841 00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:36,280 Organic luminary. 842 00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:40,640 An organic luminary art experience. 843 00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:41,640 And it is. 844 00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:42,640 It is. 845 00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:46,360 Because when I tell y'all, these people are carving out whole villages in a pumpkin. 846 00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:47,360 Yes. 847 00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:48,360 It is. 848 00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:52,480 It's world-class artistry with a pumpkin's face. 849 00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:53,480 Yes. 850 00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:56,760 And the thing about the one in Louisville, because what happened the year that I ended 851 00:41:56,760 --> 00:42:00,080 up going to McConnell Springs was I couldn't get tickets to the one in Louisville. 852 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:01,080 Right. 853 00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:02,080 They sell out fast. 854 00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:03,080 They sell out fast. 855 00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:08,920 And we're talking about $15 per adult, $12 per child, two and under free. 856 00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:14,280 And we're talking about weekday tickets are selling out, selling out, selling out. 857 00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:15,560 They're going quick. 858 00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:19,480 So McConnell Springs was my happy runner-up. 859 00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:22,920 $6 tickets for adults, 12 and under are free. 860 00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:26,880 And the one in Louisville is from October 1st through November 2nd. 861 00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:27,880 Yeah. 862 00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:28,880 So... 863 00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:29,880 So there's still some time. 864 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:35,360 So by the time you're hearing this, you'll get to rush over to Louisville. 865 00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:36,360 Yeah. 866 00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:38,280 Possibly, if they're not sold out. 867 00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:40,960 Or just put it on your calendar for next year. 868 00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:41,960 Yeah. 869 00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:42,960 Like we do every year. 870 00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:43,960 Every year. 871 00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:45,920 And then every time we go to buy a ticket, oh, we're sold out. 872 00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:46,920 I'm like, what? 873 00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:47,920 What? 874 00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:49,920 Y'all need to make more tickets. 875 00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:50,920 Whatever they need to do. 876 00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:53,520 So do you have any regrets, Derrick? 877 00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:58,760 About this wonderful Midwest October weekend? 878 00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:01,680 I got a couple. 879 00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:04,840 For Kinglin, I should have bought my ticket earlier. 880 00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:07,200 I really regret that I didn't do that. 881 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:11,240 Because I assume, because we've done it before, Thursdays just don't sell out. 882 00:43:11,240 --> 00:43:12,440 But I don't know. 883 00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:13,440 This year it's sold out. 884 00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:17,280 And for Blink, not getting there earlier. 885 00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:22,240 So we should have made the like a, where we get there around lunch or a little bit after 886 00:43:22,240 --> 00:43:31,440 lunch, take in downtown, eat, and then just make it a whole day up in Cincinnati. 887 00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:33,720 I regret that. 888 00:43:33,720 --> 00:43:38,360 And then Sunday, not Sunday, Saturday for the SC, I probably should have bought my tickets 889 00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:40,680 at the gate so I can get better seats. 890 00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:43,720 Or what we should have done, just went rogue and just started sitting wherever we wanted. 891 00:43:43,720 --> 00:43:45,480 Like London Rose did? 892 00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:49,320 Yeah, I don't think anyone was paying attention. 893 00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:56,360 And then for Sunday, the Halloween festival and Thriller Parade, I wish we would have 894 00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:57,360 danced. 895 00:43:57,360 --> 00:43:59,840 Go through the training and do it. 896 00:43:59,840 --> 00:44:00,840 Because we knew about it. 897 00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:03,640 And we were going to pull one of your moves. 898 00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:04,640 I'm just going to show up. 899 00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:06,360 And they're like, no, not this year. 900 00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:11,720 But yeah, we got it on the calendar for next year that we're going to dance. 901 00:44:11,720 --> 00:44:13,520 So we're going to be zombies next year. 902 00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:14,520 Those are my regrets. 903 00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:15,520 What about you? 904 00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:16,520 I have the same. 905 00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:17,520 Okay. 906 00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:18,520 All of them? 907 00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:19,520 All of them? 908 00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:20,520 On everything? 909 00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:23,000 I just said? 910 00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:31,880 Maybe for Keelin, I wish I had worn my hat and brought my sun blockers that day. 911 00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:36,240 Because Derek, everyone had his shades. 912 00:44:36,240 --> 00:44:38,840 And did not, would not share them. 913 00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:41,240 Not even with his child. 914 00:44:41,240 --> 00:44:42,240 Nobody asked for my shades. 915 00:44:42,240 --> 00:44:46,120 In London Rose, she tapped me on my arm and said, Mom, I asked Papa for his shades and 916 00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:47,120 he wouldn't let me have them. 917 00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:50,160 Number two, whenever the sun's out, I put on my shades. 918 00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:55,760 It's just, I've found that not wearing shades has hurt my eyesight. 919 00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:59,040 So I try to wear shades because I'm either driving into the sun for work. 920 00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:00,520 So I wear shades now. 921 00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:03,240 I used to never wear shades, but anyway. 922 00:45:03,240 --> 00:45:08,840 But yeah, that's, that's our October Midwest weekend. 923 00:45:08,840 --> 00:45:15,320 Until next time, talk to y'all later. 924 00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:18,760 If you made it this far, you are the true champion. 925 00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:23,080 You could have been anywhere, doing anything, but you instead chose to spend your time with 926 00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:24,080 us. 927 00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:26,360 And for that, we say thank you. 928 00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:27,360 I'm Derek. 929 00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:28,360 I'm Makayla. 930 00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:30,660 Rate, like, and subscribe. 931 00:45:30,660 --> 00:45:33,000 Do good, be good. 932 00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:47,320 Until next time.
