The Harness Track might be the most depressing place on earth. Dark, cold AC, horrible food and smelly.

Check it out for yourself and get back to me

The slots completely ruined that place (for simulcasting purposes).

Seriously, I was there once. It was 2002 (obviously pre slots) and the place was pretty crappy. It wasn't quite as bad as Freehold, but it was in the same category.

Its only gotten worse! They dont really cater to those of us who bet simulcast tracks. Very few tellers and a bunch of miserable peopel working there, not to mention a clientel resembling that of a busstop.

Go to Saratoga or stay home and play from the phopne/internet!

I don't care if you live 13 feet away...who in their right mind chooses to watch the races from Saratoga Harness instead of AT Saratoga?
