We attended the draft horse pull at the Polo Grounds and that was a much better venue for an event such as this. There is much more room there and a much longer track for the horses to go around which would have allowed for a much larger viewing area. Brownwood is just too small for an event such as this.

Polo Grounds would have been great for this event, but I don't think they could have held it there. What a traffic jam it would have caused all over TV with people who live here and people who live outside trying to get onto BV to get to the Polo Grounds to see them. But, what a magnificent site it would have been to see them go around that track.
We were fortunate to see them several times when we were working in Europe. Magnificent sight, I will never ever forget it.
