I'd Still Lose My Mind Seeing Hawkeye Downs be Dirt!

 I feel that I'd Still Lose My Mind Seeing Hawkeye Downs be Dirt! Problem is, it was Oriented as Dirt and made Blue Collar Cedar Rapids Comfortable and Relatable to us Insiders and Outsiders. 

But, I'd always known it as Asphalt and that would be the Michael Gelman saying "Here are your hosts, Regis Philbin and Kathie Lee Gifford" in that sense at Grandma and Grandpas, and that is an awkward adjustment.

Even in a High Class Downtown like Cedar Rapids, I could see Old Trucks with Bumper Stickers saying "Asphalt is for Getting There, Dirt is For Racing." 

I feel more and more, we'd miss having Stances for Reasons. But, you can't argue with modernizations, safety and comfort, either.
