The tracks are already getting 20% or so of what they put through the windows and then suck another $1000+ probably on admission. Not to mention the cost of PPs, food/drinks at the track, etc... People who play for a living shouldn't have to be subjected to all this unnecessary overhead when they're the ones generating the most handle.
Why not? I don't understand this concept. And yes I read the post. I disagree 100% with giving people who play "regualry" free admission. And one who cares about the health of the sport should want to pay the admission fee, pp's, and food. I can get into Churchill and Hoosier free anytime I want, but I always pay the $2. I am happy to pay this. As a lover of the sport, I feel it is my duty to support the tracks.
