This is so true.



It is a tough place to be around at night.

My Father said there was another race track right next to Thistledown...where Randall Mall is now.

In fact I think it was Randall Park...maybe a trotter place.


He also said there was Crandall Park in Geauga Lake. He told me GL was really wide open back in those days...anything you wanted I guess....and Ascott was in Akron. So there were 5 mixes of thoroughs and trotters within about no more than 30 minutes of each other and now there are 2.
