Is The Track A Depressing Place?

I say no.

I guess you are living in a Twilight Zone-esque alternate universe..

I see the warmest, funniest, most animated characters imaginable, joking and arguing with their racetrack or lifelong friends as they enjoy a routine they've repeated for years or are in the process of creating.

You aren't at the track on weekdays anyway.. You're being morose.. Have a Peep...

LOL Steve, I will have 2 peeps.

Characters, yes and they are interesting...I've been to track on weekdays many times, though not lately so I know what that's like as well.

i agree i love going to the track live. to see the people and horses. my job has me traveling all over the usa so every change i get to go to a track i go. wouldn't want it any other way. i guess that is why i also like my job.
