Derby Reportage part 1

  • Hunter S. Thompson outs himself in the article
  • is this kinda like breaking the forth wall? 
  • the reporter usually doesn't put him self as a character in the article nd he's explaining his own experience 

  • he's very straight up with everything, just says what he thinks, a lot of vulgarity, yet it makes it a little funny
  • he's going to a horse derby to write about the horses, but he realizes that what people are more interested I are the people around them nd their bets
  • there's going to be a riot at the derby? I'm not sure if he's making this up or not
  • Diane Crump was the first woman to ride in the derby 
  • he says he a writer for the playboy magazine, has a a lot of tags on his bag to show off or make it seem like he travels a lot nd even has a playboy tag that he bought
