Amazing that folks in SF allowed this wonderful legendary instution of racing(lol) and there 5 horse fields and crappy purses, to be demolished by greedy business people.

Sometimes I wonder what the heck people are thinking.Do you all think that the Bay Meadows product was terriffic and was generating tons of money for its owner? Seriously think about it. IF Bay Meadows was such a great business would any of this have happened? It's a shame that this has happened and its speaks volumes about how insane polictics can be but let's not lose sight that the reason Bay Meadows is no more is because there product sucked. Save all the 1960's nostalgia for a coffee table book as long as I can remember Bay Meadows was an unplayable haven of 5 horse fields and Russel Bazes winning 3 to 5 races a day on odds on horses. It was hardly MUST SEE TV?
