They are indeed, wouldn't be totally surprised if it was the last one either. They have been shutting it down on and off since 2000. Old Suffolk just isnt cutting it anymore. The track needs slots money and it was defeated in this years legislative session.

There is a little hope however, as all three Democrats running for Governor are for expanded gaming to help subsudize towns, schools, etc. So, they may get a chance with a Democrat as Governor.

Sorry for hijacking the thread
