Title: Where did the $1.5 million in handle go?
Post by: stanetelman on March 12, 2023, 09:20:06 AM: Last weekend the Meadowlands handled over $8.5 million dollars but this weekend with the same amount of races that number didn't reach $7 million. Needless to say management is more than a little concerned.
""We couldn't be happier with the wagering support from our loyal fans," said Meadowlands Chief Operating Officer and General Manager Jason Settlemoir, "but when your handle drops by that amount you have to wonder what happened. We have a more than $10,000 carryover in the pick 6 next Friday so we're hoping some of that lost handle returns to our pools. We hope it''s not the start of a downward trend."

Post by: wizardofoz on March 12, 2023, 03:54:35 PM: I thought so. Quite sick and ridiculous! It was made up. It is NOWHERE on the playmeadowlands.c om website today. Yet some here responded as if it was true, which NO way would Settlemoir have ever said and he put 2 quotation marks at the start of the lying quote which was an error.

Post by: stanetelman on March 14, 2023, 10:04:58 PM: Meadowlands handle March 3: $4,519,050 Meadowlands handle March 10: $3,339,013
Meadowlands handle March 4: $4,062,855. Meadowlands handle March 11: $3,639,008
Total handle: $8,581,905. Total handle : $6,978,001

I have to apologize as I was wrong as the handle did not fall by $1.5 million. The actual loss in handle was -$1,603,904.
