It's interesting for me to read the negative views about Philly Park. I attended for the first and only time in early April and enjoyed the experience. We sat upstairs and rented a cubicle with a tv for a buck,had large tvs with all the tracks in front of us as well. I was able to get a wagering machine (for lack of a better term) for free (in Maryland you pay $5 for it) and when the live races ran it was only 30 feet away to watch the races live. The people were friendly and helpful.
The simulcasting setup where I was sitting was better than Maryland tracks (try to locate a California signal in a number of simulcasting areas).
Since I have no frame of reference having never been there before I'm not endorsing Philly by any means. It goes to show ya if you've been fed crap all your life (in Maryland, which by the way has no slots) anything else tastes sweet.
