Forum Member in the News (again) - Thomas Kearney - 11-01-2016 01:19 PM

Back in June I entered a contest sponsored by the Breeders' Cup, NBC, and America's Best Racing. The winner can chose a fashion experience with Carson Kressley, a food experience with Bobby Flay, a racing experience with Grand Slam winners Victor Espinoza and Bob Baffert, and a celebrity experience with Elizabeth Banks. I won the Celebrity experience. I get air and hotel with studio tours, racetrack admission, and more. Read this Q and A I did, follow my trip on Twitter, and look for me on NBC.

Congratulations Thomas!
Nice Q & A session

Will you be part of the "live" broadcast this weekend, or will you be on at a later time?


RE: Forum Member in the News (again) - Thomas Kearney - 11-02-2016 11:33 AM

Gene, I will likely be part of the live coverage

Got back from LA yesterday afternoon. Check out my Twitter page for pics. I had a great time and it just goes to show I've come along since trying to impress Janie Hammaker by lying about being the winning rider in the Kentucky Derby when I was in 7th Grade. And with the chance Fairmount might hire me, I may be on my way to NBC, that'll shock her when Tom Hammond says "and calling his first Kentucky Derby, lets go to Thomas Kearney".

Wonderful, Thomas. We all wish you the best of luck and hope you get the job at Fairmount.

I do see one "Twitter problem," though. I think someone hacked your Twitter account and wrote false information for November 2:

Roger, I was not hacked, that was written on purpose due to my personal dislike of the Cubs.

Way to go Tom!

It was an exciting race.
Hint - Regarding your tweets link - next time you get your picture taken with Kevin Spacey, get your hair cut - Big Grin

Gene, Kevin Spacey was unfortunately not there. And that was Michael Shannon in the picture with Spacey, but I did write myself in for the Board of Education today.
