The american national everything best summer nite racing around!!! When they turned sportsman's from 5/8ths to 7/8ths that was something i thought was wrong but after 25 years and seeing what they did to that place and everything else here and now Hawthorne is the last ship remaining i mean they just like balmoral and maywood were always the after thought but now its just hawthorne only thing i liked about hawthorne harness were the double headers and they day racing on new years day that led into the rose bowl!!!!!

IHHA around the same time was taking out over 2mln a year. A office space in Hinsdale, a couple secretaries, Tony S salary, a few worthless lobbyist, the lunch bill each month for a meeting, and insurance for horsemen. I'm sure there is more. But 5 or 6 years ago there was 7mln at least sucked out of the purse account.
