Today... a flashback to a fun time!
Check this out!
April 20, 1975, was the eighth annual Tanglewood Steeplechase.
Tailgaters filled the Tanglewood Park grounds for an annual horse racing event.
It began in the 60s as a way to give locals a taste of big-time horse racing.
The event became a major social affair... Sometimes attracting tens of thousands of people.
The event continued for decades until 2002.
They held one more steeplechase in 2010... But it hasn't returned since.
