The only reason Arlington did this was because Intertrack (Maywood/Balmoral) started building all these OTB's in existing restaurants and bars, surrounding Arlington and Arlington OTB. They were forced to do two things, eliminate admission fees becuase the new OTB's were free, and upgrade everything, because they were losing business left and right
I think they built about 15 within a 100 mile radius, and Arlington has about 4-5 now within this area.
My friend actually delivered all the TV's to them, 150 32" Flat screens and another 100 50" flat screens (i think)
They are all over now, both Arlington Race Course and the OTB.
