Beddy-Poacher 30 Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 I will never forget the first time I went to the Waterloo Cup and we got lost on the way there, I was gutted thinking we would miss it but thankfully did'nt.. As of then being 5 years old I attended every year until it was banned. Have some great memories of it and wish I could take my children one day.. Doubt the ban will ever be lifted but we can only hope. FTB Quote Link to post

sowhat 1,572 Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 (edited) Got some great memories of attending the cup, I always stood near the bookies to have a little bet. Best bet I had was when Mouse Tail won the cup in 87 what a cracking little black bitch she was. Edited January 21, 2011 by sowhat Quote Link to post
breeze 1,307 Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 Had some good Craic's at the Waterloo Remember talking to a Welsh lad one year who was doing all 3 day's, So I said to him where you stating at ? He replied "You know the big posh Hotel where they have the call over (Scarisbrick) I said yea and I was just thinking that must of set him back a fair few quid . . . When he chipped in with " Yea kipping in the van in there car park" Fecking classic Took my mind from off the Hail stone's that were battering down Quote Link to post

zigzag dan 784 Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 I used to do the 3 days , the call over on the Monday night , over the road to the disco under the Scarisbrick , great to see Sir Mark Presscott pissed on the dance floor always had women hanging off him , remember had £200 on Heneritta at 9/4 when she won it , she killed her hare in every round , i phoned my brother with the commentry of the final ( im going cold as i picture it now !)it went " shes led up , shes turned it , shes killed it " Steven Little , start counting !!! . I took my 9yr old son to the last day , the slipper and judge signed his card , it sits proudly on his wall , i sometimes pass the Withins when travelling and i park up for ten minutes and imagine what it was like , must admit i sometimes shed a tear , Mr Blair , you had no idea did you ? 2 Quote Link to post
iceman001979 1,316 Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 Never ever went to any coursing meets but the hares that are coursed are netted hares from differed land brought to a spot to be coursed seen the clip there and looks as if the hare as not got clue where they are surely this not the way to test any sort off top running dog just asking by the way :thumbs: but all in all looks good day out Quote Link to post
