Oddworld Grand National!
Well, it's the Grand National. [Note: This is an annual horse racing event]
Is anyone going to bet on it? We normally bet a few quid every year.

I don't think I'll be funding animal cruelty this year.

I think that's a bit harsh. It's not like fox hunting or cock fighting.

Yeah, I don't particularly like horse-racing.

Alex you talk about horse race betting like everyone does it or something...

It's not the superbowl, no one gives a crap about it.

I don't give a crap about the Superbowl either. The way everyone cares about sport competitions so much scares me.

I've never even heard of Grand National until now. I don't bet anyway. I don't trust my luck one bit.

The Grand National is a special horse racing event that happens only once a year. Basically if there ever was a time to bet on horses, this event would be it.

At least, that's what I've been told. Maybe I've been lied to all my life!
It wouldn't surprise me!

Bugger that. Come to Melbourne in November for Melbourne Cup Day. Only horse race in the world that has its own public holiday.

Yeah, why the fuck do you care about the Superbowl Havoc? Is it because you're a moron? Why am I asking anyone, I know that's the reason.
