Unless they drive their car on the BART platform or tracks (which I’m never on lately) I should be safe. :-)

How about them Giants? (from a Twinkies fan)

Ok Norm, deal me in. On the road again but will be home by race time. Looking fwd to a great race; I can’t believe the “experts” pick Kazolowski #1 and J.J. #7 in rankings for this race.
