But seriously, let me ask you this, how many other woman roll that way at your local OTB?

I am not saying it is impossible, and matter of fact I know of one woman at Arlington that is in her late 30's that regularly is there with a brick of cash, but she is the ONLY one there.
The biggest reason I don't walk into an OTB is 1) I have a Twinspires and NYRA account; and 2) nearly every person in there has a close minded viewpoint towards woman. Saying stupid stuff like "Can you read that?" while pointing to your Form. I bet around $400 this past weekend, is marketing to people like me (who yes, enjoy dressing up and love horses ) really not worth it? Sure there are people betting TONS more than that, but trying to attract numbers of woman like me, is not a bad thing!
