Trey Davey, we like sports right? Maybe we could become jockeys and ride thoroughbreds in the Kentucky Derby. It’s the “Most Exciting Two Minutes in Sports”, the first leg of the Triple Crown, and the “Run for the Roses. Think of it, the fame, the fortune, and the celebrities. What do you think?
Benji, it’s a cool idea, but I don’t know. Jockeys are very small, agile guys. A rider can be any height, but there is a weight limit of about 120 lb. People that size are typically shorter ranging from 5’ to 5’7” in height. We are small guys now, but we will grow out of that, probably by a bunch. Look, Daddy Dave was bigger than the largest jockey by the seventh grade. We have a better chance of jockeying jets, like Granddad Roe, than thoroughbreds.
