My son and I do plenty of things and go to the track is one of them.
Its darn fun. We had a blast at the track.
There were all sorts of petting zoos, live music, petting the ponies.
And my daughter played every sport as a kid so it was a good outlet.
Not like I drug her there every weekend, she wanted to go.

I think Gander might be used to seeing the gambling addicts who drag their
little bitty kids to an OTB and set them in a corner telling them to
sit still and shut up and the kids then run around bugging everyone
cause there is nothing to do. Ive seen this aspect during the off season
simulcasting. And its not good.
