Oscar Dooley: Love Wins Out

In 1991, then known as Chris Jordan, the chap who now calls himself OC Dooley went public with his homosexuality long before it was chic. "America's Only Openly Gay Handicapper" says he never thought he would live to see the day when he could marry his partner of nearly 21 years, "Wade."

"We cried in each other's arms today," opined the journeyman tout, "or as Wade and I like to say, we klutched with a capital K." When asked how Wade and he celebrated, he responded, "My life" admitting a lot of love was made.

Congratulations Oscar Dooley of Woodstock, GA, a true pioneer in the gay rights movement.
