No young people are going to wait around while they stall and stall between races,so boring,old degenerates like me will wait,but it is a total turnoff to regular folks

They wait for the millions of commercial crap thrown at them during the football games

For god sake they sometimes put a commercial during the plays !

*gotta drag 'til race's handle 'reasonable'
*gotta drag til other bigger track's race is 'off'

simulcasting and dragging go hand in hand

do feel bad for the 'handful of new fans' but theyve got
their phones and facebook to fuck around with durimg the
wait..

35 years ago..no simul..just one track to play. NO DRAG
How the hell did us veterans not lose our minds bored out of our gores.....oh ya, we didn't know any different.

Make more posts about being stuck in airports

And less about

comparing a 45 break between races to a 1:30 commercial break

Much too much time! In the old days when you got shut out, you learned and it never happened again! I know they want to try and coordinate with other tracks but eternal scoring and lengthy delays are not the way! Try racing at times where there is less competition and your audience is guaranteed!

At 0 mins to post, a lot of betters see 0 mins and rush to get a bet in. I was the same way. Seen 0 mins to post at any track, and I'm rushing to the window to get a bet in. That's why most of the money comes in, at 0 mins to post. Its just playing with the minds of the people that keep the tracks going ----> THE DEGENERATE GAMBLER!!!

I was at Hawthorne for bachelor party 10 Guys hadn’t been to track outside of balmoral and even then no concept for racing

Their biggest compliant time between taxes to boring

We left and went to horseshoe after

They haven’t been to a track but frequent a casino

You do have to allow a reasonable break between races because there are not many younger folks betting - but!! you gotta allow enough time for more mature seniors to go to the bathroom between nearly every race.
