June 6, 2015 was my 23 birthday. It was also the day my grandmother lost her battle with cancer. She died a few hours before the Belmont, around 3pm. I was grief stricken, but I took a break in packing my suitcase to watch the race and said a short little prayer for AP as they loaded in the gates. When they turned for home and AP pulled ahead...I stood up and just burst into tears. I'll never forget that moment. I experienced the entire spectrum of emotion that day. I am forever grateful for American Pharoah, because even in what seemed like my darkest hour, he was the light.

Undeniably, the greatest sporting event I have ever attended! The 147th Belmont Stakes was nothing short of historic. I was able to share a memory with my mom that can never be duplicated. She loves horses, and has been talking about Secretariate and the impossible Triple Crown for years. She called me up earlier this week and reminded me that the race was this weekend. After her call, I immediately booked last minute tickets to an event neither of us have ever attended. Surprise mom, guess what... we're going! Front row, grandstand seats! I have never seen her so happy in all my life, and her happiness was my happiness. And somehow, in some weird way... I knew this was the year. I cannot describe how I feel today, knowing the results of the race, but this high I'm on will last me the rest of my life. 37 years of waiting for a Triple Crown winner, and the one year I take my mom to the track... it happens. Congratulations to American Pharoah! The race and memory of a lifetime.

The last Triple Crown was nine months before I was born. I didn't think I'd ever see it again after seeing so many horses fade in the last 1/8 mile. I thought the sport had changed too much and the horses couldn't be trained to do it anymore. But he made it look easy. It's not every day you see someone live up to the hype, but this horse is every bit the worthy successor to his fellow Triple Crown winners.

Yesterday in the coverage they mentioned that early on it was noted that he had a very easy gliding stride, and it's totally evident. Watch closely as they come down the back stretch. He takes pretty much one stride while the other horses almost take two. It's like a study in efficiency of motion!!!!

My great grandmother is 100 and she's been telling me about all of the TC winners. She has been lucky to be alive to see all 12 winners! Wow. This is my first, but now I understand what she means when those horses really do have a special place in people's hearts. They make you believe there is hope. Props to you American Pharoah--the American Phenomenon.

Congratulations American Pharoah! You are now an immortal legend. I was beginning to think another Triple Crown would not happen during my lifetime. Even though I was alone in a room when I watched the race, I gave him a standing ovation.

Still love watching this even all these years later. Growing up listening to my dad talk about Secretariat and Seattle Slew, and how long it had been. Seeing the heart breaks of Smarty Jones and Mind that Bird. There was that thinking of “it’s never gonna happen again” Then watching American pharaoh finally do it. It was so exciting to finally be alive and see a Triple Crown winner!

I was born in 78 and as a racing fan I always felt it was such cruelty to have just missed seeing a TC winner. And now American Pharaoh in almost messianic proportions makes me witness something special. Something I'll remember for all time. We may not see one again for 37 years people. Soak it in. And to those calling for the cheapening of the crown by changing it.....This is why you don't. Because American Pharaoh wears his crown without an asterisk!

TC stands for 'Triple Crown'(ie comprehension). "I was born in 78 and as a racing fan I always felt it was such cruelty to have just missed seeing a TC winner." This of course is a reference to *Affirmed*, not *Secretariat*. BUT, through intuition and not knowledge, some clamoring jabroni comes along and alludes to Secretariat, completely irrelevant to the OP as they *try* to contribute to the conversation in some way. THEN, this guy comes along, this 'ROB C' guy, who actually comes here to support the a) wrong b) inaccurate c) flat out ignorant allusion to Secretariat. Rob, in your quest for "'reading comprehension'," I strongly recommend 'Power' by Robert Greene and 'Think Twice' by Michael Mauboussin, because when suggestively insinuate others have no "'reading comprehension'" in an effort to defend those who are *wrong*, it's actually irrefutable proof that your brain is operating in deconstructive functions. I have *hope* for you; good luck.

Still hard to not get teary-eyed watching this race. I was born in 1996, and can remember watching Funny Cide, Smarty Jones, Big Brown, I’ll Have Another, and California Chrome all fall just short of the Triple Crown. I wondered if I’d ever see it happen, and then American Pharoah came along. I still remember him entering that last stretch, watching it on TV at my house, knowing this is the point where so many other horses fell short. Pharoah’s lead continued to grow over Frosted and I knew he had it. I was jumping up and down, hugging my parents, shocked and amazed that I had just witnessed the 37 year drought come to an end. Larry Collmus was right, American Pharoah truly is the “horse of a lifetime!” Hopefully Bob Baffert is able to pull it off again with Justify in a couple weeks!

It's a shame they don't have longer careers these days, but the breed has been linebred back to Northern Dancer so much that they're too unsound to take the risk.

God just watching this again, I know he's gonna win, but damn my heart was in my throat the whole time!! Such an incredible horse!!

"Hey, American Pharoah...YOU JUST WON THE TRIPLE CROWN! What are you going to do now?" That was spellbinding... ❤ *I'm so glad he was able to run his best when it mattered the most!* I'm sure if the people there could take their eyes off of him during his victory lap for just a second...and take a look up above them... The clouds above might look familiar... ...like eleven giant horses galloping across a sky with three crowns of golden sunlight beaming... ...all knowing that a great has joined their immortal company. Nearly a hundred years...and now the champion of champions now number a dozen. *Magnificent!* ❤ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I don’t follow horse racing that much but that last line still gets me teared up, and I rarely cry in general

Espinoza amd Baffert deserve to be in the Hall of Fame. American Pharoah gave horse racing what it needed. EAT YOUR WORDS COBURN.

Truly a great horse wow

***** I bet

I was all set to stream it live on NBC and the internet went down about two seconds after the start! It came back up to a commercial and the race was over! Ahhhhh! :O Glad I got to see it here thanks for posting. :)

My dad, a huge horse racing fan who took me to the track dozens of times when I was a kid, passed away just a month before this race. He would have loved to watch it. I cry every time I do.

32 years old. Grandmother used to live very close to the track where Belmont is held. Grew up hearing stories, ghosts of the past since I was born in November 1982 and the last to win was in 1978. Grandma used to wax lyrical about Secretariat's win, but as each year passed I thought I would never see such a race myself. Today, Secretariat must be in heaven looking proudly at his descendant American Pharaoh-"Well done, my boy. I told God you could do it."

Beautiful call by Larry Collmus.

I had the honor to see this historic race live at Belmont Park, where I worked back then. Amazing! Thank you

Loved it!...Catch me if you can, A.P. seems to say from the very beginning .. with such calmness and ease. He seems to have a such a comfortable stride compared to some of the competitors. Great race. Even GREATER horse.

Hello how are you doing?

so cool...he was extending..if his jockey asked hi. to go earlier he would've won by a ridiculous length.. he had plenty left in him..what an athlete

Finallyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!! A new Triple Crown winner!!!!! Bravoooooooo!!!!!!!

We were all watching it as a family. Of course this horse caught my attention after the Kentucky derby and I fell in love with him! Previous years I jinx every other horse I ever fell in love with like Funny side, Silver Charm, War Emblem to name a view but there was something captivating and different about the Pharaoh, and when he was in the lead especially down the stretch I was crying! I thought I would never see a triple crown winner in my life time! It was so exciting!

I cried like a baby I wanted to see one in my lifetime and now I have what an amazing horse

And Secretariat was running there right next to American Pharaoh, encouraging him.

After watching Justify,I just have to remember when I witnessed AP in person at the Belmont. First horse race I've been to, and I witness a Triple Crown: how lucky can you get?! True story, by the way. My family and I were said to be the best dressed at the race by someperson, and we were in the far left of the clubhouse. I remember as clear as day.

FINALLY! I got to see it happen in my lifetime! Way to go Pharaoh, you've just been immortalized!

At the 16th pole, and here it is. THE 37 YEAR WAIT IS OVER! American Pharoah is FINALLY THE ONE! AMERICAN PHAROAH HAS WON THE TRIPLE CROWN! Announcer absolutely nailed it.

Just a complete Horse right there. Amazing.

Well I hope everyone enjoyed it because we won't be seeing a triple crown winner for a long time, but still what a race

Shit Disturber I was thinking the same thing. Heck, between 1973 and 1978 there were THREE Triple Crown winners - and two of those were two years in a row, 1977 and 1978. It's not as rare as the 37-year drought makes it seem.

Sarah B The sport has evolved since the 70s hence the 37 year drought. There is a lot more money involved nowadays so there are a greater amount of competitive horses each year

Remember watching this from my apartment after a day of working on a horse farm in Lexington, KY. As I watched them go half way through the mile and a half, I exclaimed to myself "He's not even TRYING yet!!! Oh my LORD, he's gonna do it!!" I giddy cried for like an hour after this. :)

I was there I will never forget how that felt.I could watch this everyday what a horse#AP

We may owe it all to Mr. Z too...

I think everyone misses the true point of Secretariat's real victory. The time is a record, yes. Several horses have come close to it. The REAL awe & wonder of his victory was the 31 and a half lengths that he won it by! THAT is what makes him the Wonder Horse.

@Whoopdido777

@@suehart3965 No horse has come close to his time. Secretariat ran 2:24. The second fastest time was Easy Goer in 1989 at 2:26. Had Secretariat been running against Easy Goer (the second fastest ever) that day, he still would have won by 10 lengths. And what I really would have liked to see is what he could have done as a 4 or 5 year old. That’s when thoroughbreds peak. Why they run the Triple Crown races when they’re 3 is stupid. The horses are too young and immature at that point.

@@Whoopdido777 Yes, 2 seconds in a horse race is an eternity, I'll admit. But not in real time. But when I said many had come close, I was talking under 3 sec. from his time. But I still say, 31 lengths is still what is phenomenal about Secretariat. And yes, I, too, would've loved to have seen what he could've done as a 4 & 5 year old! Secretariat will always be considered the greatest of all time in my eyes. Ciao!

I have no clue why this makes my eyes water EVERY time and I'm not even a horse racing fan! The commentary was legendary!

The Horse pulling away in the stretch like Secretariat, the epic call by Larry, and the crowd going nuts will give me chills till I die. What an honor it was to witness this Super Horse.

The last time there was a Triple Crown winner, I was still in college...Jimmy Carter was POTUS, the Yankees were World Champs, the Dallas Cowboys had just won Super Bowl XII..
