“Ludwig Wittgenstein came up at the Kentucky Derby?” Spence says.
“Most certainly,” says Admin. “Bob Costas asked the winning owner, J. Paul Reddam, for his thoughts, specifically as a former philosophy professor at USC. And Reddam instantly gave this summary of Wittgenstein and how it applied to him – ‘After all the philosophical problems have been solved, nothing will have been accomplished, so we decided to get into horse racing.'”
“Congratulations to I’ll Have Another -a very exciting finish.”
