Scores of college presidents, including the head of Maryland’s public university system and the president of Johns Hopkins University, have an unexpected request for legislators: Please, lower the drinking age.
The Amethyst Initiative, launched in July, is a coalition of college presidents who say that the legal drinking age of 21 encourages binge drinking on campuses. William Kirwan, chancellor of the University System of Maryland, William Brody, president of Johns Hopkins, C.D. Mote Jr. of the University of Maryland and the presidents of Washington and Lee, Sweet Briar, Towson, Randolph-Macon, Duke, Tufts, Dartmouth and others have signed on to the effort.
It is likely to be difficult politically to change the drinking age, which has been 21 since the mid-1980s.
Not surprisingly, America’s richest state, Maryland, is also the most forward thinking.

This decade has had some of the worst style ever. Wearing the Bluetooth around town and in bars is one of the most horrid.
Don’t ever do this:
I mean, its a Down Economy, you are not closing that many deals.

The Girl is dressed ok. Guy is low-end. Not getting in The Turf Club dressed like this.
Dope Style:
Former Lightweight champ Ray “Boom Boom” Mancini, presents the winning connections with flowers and champagne in the Del Mar Winner’s Circle. Mancini dressed dope even though he is not in a suit. And notice he has some decent girls around him too.
Wack Style:
The cast of HBO’s hit show Entourage find their way to the cheap seats at the Del Mar Racetrack. This is how to dress if you don’t want girls. Doesn’t matter how much CASH you have, you can never get into The Turf Club dressed like buffoons. Show some class. I actually saw this episode, and if you recall they got no girls. It’s pretty sad when you can’t swoop girls on your own TV show.
Jimmy Durante enjoying a laugh with fellow entertainer George Jessel.
Dope Style:
Tennis champ Martina Hingis poses in the Winner’s Circle with jockey Alex Solis. And is dressed classy.
Wack Style:
Not even sure who this guy is, but I guess his name is “Shawn Merriman”. All I know is he is coming Wack, like Vanilla Ice on a Freestyle.
Dope Style:
Racing enthusiast and owner Rick Pitino celebrates in the Winner’s Circle with the winning connections and a bottle of champagne. Pitino is also a Turf Club Regular. Cool cat.
Wack Style:
Rafael Bejarano and Luke Walton in the Winners Circle after the 1st Division of the Oceanside Stakes. Horrid style.
Dope Style:
Pat O’Brien and Don Ameche chat between races. Style all the way.
Dope Style:
I remember this cat when I was a kid. Warren Moon poses with fashionably dressed fans as he awaits the awards presentation in the Winner’s Circle. Shirt is a little 2005 “Gaslamp” but all in all a good job.
Dope Style:
Del Mar regular Jerry Tarkanian poses with the winning connections for a picture in the Winner’s Circle. I often chop it up with Tark in The Turf Club.
NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson in the Winner’s Circle as he prepares to present the winning trophys. Not bad.
Dope Style:
Actress and newly appointed member of the CHRB Bo Derek enjoys opening day with President and GM of Del Mar, Joe Harper.
This all being said, no one dresses more fresh than your humble author.

At The Del Mar Race Track, you will see primarily two different styles; dope and wack. Here are some examples of both:
Dope Style:
General Manager Bill Quigley, President Bing Crosby, and Vice President Pat O’Brien were more than a management team in the early days of Del Mar. They created a Del Mar lifestyle that endures to this day.
Del Mar’s GM Joe Harper poses in winner’s circle with funny men Johnny Knoxville and Luke Wilson. Joe Harper dresses dope. The other two clowns dress wack.
Dope Style:
Former heavyweight champion Jack Dempsey was popular with the jockeys as well as with the fans. In this trip to the track in 1937, he poses with some jockeys.
