Couldn't agree more. It's so sad. I don't understand what's going on or their logic behind keeping everything closed the way it currently is. I am a young harness racing fan (extremely rare) and I have stopped going to the track entirely because of how poor the current layout is.

I got kicked out of the paddock during the T-bred meet for having an expired license. All I wanted to do was see the horses up close. Now they have a security guard preventing anyone from getting close to the finish line. I just don't understand it. There are very few young fans like me, and Hawthorne is doing everything they can to ruin my love for the sport.

Hawthorne is a fckin disgrace

Start from the Carey’s

Work your way down


4 yrs slots bill passed

Track and building still look like a disaster area


Carey’s are a fuckin  embarrassment

carey is pulling down some good coin with the status quo....he's got the sports betting at 2 of his OTB's and slots at a few as well...he makes a killing on the slots...plus he still gets his recapture...big $$...plus his % on all the off track wagering is healthy as well.....

He's not gonna change a thing moving forward unless he's forced to...he'll eventually sell the land and retire...you'll never see Hawthorne casino - especially with the city casino coming...
