I bet on a horse once that happened to be ridden by a jockey I knew.
The race goes off, the horse gets a 2 lenght lead in deep stretch and looks like a sure winner. Suddenly the jockey eases up on the horse a couple jumps before the wire and looses by a lenght.
I happen to see this jockey later that evening at a local pub and asked him "what happened?" He says "I blew my teeth". I said "HUH?"
He says "My dentures fell out of my mouth and onto the track during the stretch drive and I needed to look around so I knew where to find them before the next race went off ".
