You can't get ant better than this, Blimp Races today!!

Call it the Dirigible-on-Hudson 500 because citizens have we got fun today. 3 blimps (Unless Johnny turns the Jersey City Desk traffic copter into a drag racer) will race from the Statue of Liberty, up the Hudson to Weehawkem then into midtown Manhattan.

The Hangar 1 Vodka blimp, the Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey blimp, and the DirectTV blimp will race at 5 pm today until 7 pm. Of course we are cheering for the Blue Cross of New Jersey blimp just because we're homers.

Current toteboard odds:
Hangar 1 Vodka blimp 7-1
Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey blimp 5-2
DirectTV blimp 4-1

Bet as much as you want to. The Raccoon Lodge in lower Manhattan near the new One World Trade is taking off track money as is the WareHouse Cafe here in Jersey City.
