I didn't realize this thread was a comparison of VA versus MD racing. VA racing is basically an offshoot of Maryland racing, isn't it? I think Maryland versus West Virginia or Pennsylvania even would be a better comparison, and if it weren't for the Preakness, Maryland racing probably would have gone the way of the do do bird by now whilst racing in every state surrounding Maryland thrives.
I happen to have spent more than my fair share of time in Maryland, and think the place is awful from Cumberland to Baltimore, Oxen Hill to Hancock, and all points in between. If hating a state makes someone a bigot, then I'm guilty as charged.
