I've been at two Triple Crown wins so far. Here are my trip stories and I hope to be at the Belmont Stakes every time there is a Triple Crown contender. Come with me for the next one.

2018 Triple Crown Day 3 New York City
The next day was the day of the Belmont Stakes and the Triple Crown. All dressed up, we had a driver take us to Tiffany's (because Monica reminded us that it was her birthday) and through Central Park before dropping us off at Pennsylvania Station where we took a train on the Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) that took us all the way to the race track, almost directly to the entrance gate. While you can buy your train tickets to the Belmont Stakes at Pennsylvania Station, I would definitely recommend buying your train tickets online ahead of time. There were guys hocking tickets in the train station, but I would be extremely leery of buying tickets from strangers. Odds are that they printed fake tickets from a home printer and those tickets are not valid at all. Buy your tickets from MTA at http://web.mta.info/lirr/getaways/belmontpark/
I don't know how our driver cut Chris out of the second photo.

These next few pics are from Tiffany's - the real Tiffany's. We asked our driver to take us to Tiffany's so he took us to the Tiffany's at Rockefeller Center which is really just a pop-up store of sorts for Tiffany's. Being not completely sure, we did enter the Tiffany's door that our driver pointed to and looked around for just a couple of seconds before Kelly asked one of the Tiffany's clerks, "Where is the real Tiffany's?" They told us and we were out of there faster than the girls could bat an eyelash. The "real" Tiffany's that we went to is at 727 5th Avenue. You'll love it. Go buy something.

While we were at Tiffany's, Chris and Tracy went next door to check out Trump Tower.

This video was shot as we rode from Tiffany's to Central Park (pretty sure). Cardi B was big.
We had a short walk through part of Central Park. I wanted to take everyone to the castle in the park, but it was closed for renovations. Then we were off to Madison Square Garden/Pennsylvania Station.
