Trifecta Tour: Bridles and Bootleggers

Thursday May 21

6:00 PM  –  9:00 PM

Saratoga Springs in the 1920s was a city that refused to go dry. While Prohibition gripped the rest of the nation, in Saratoga, the situation was quite different. The lake houses glittered with illegal liquor, high-stakes gambling, and backroom deals. Underground casinos thrived, scandals shook the racing world, and city officials conspired to keep the money rolling. It was a golden era built on risk, corruption, and the understanding that in Saratoga, the rules did not apply.
