That was entertaining although I’m not sure what this place really is. Part county park, part junkyard, part barbecue pit, no tote board, a crooked finish line, a tiny grandstand in a position I don’t get and is that a wagering building or a small strip mall? Pretty interesting video.

Probably had a bit of the water of life before assembling the entire operation. Im an irish (heritage) teetotaler but folks tell me some of the old country folks still take a nip of the gargle from time to time. Bless their souls.

  • Trigger: The BigM on life support, no casino, no good, maybe gets the casino and closes racing down.  Without the BigM The SBOANJ might as well be on Mars!  The only thing that stinks more in NJ than Jiffy Jeff & Fatso, is the smell!  ;D
