It all seems so, so, frivolous.

It seems to me that the only offering remotely of interest to me would be higher quality food, but if I wanted good food I'd just go to my favorite Japanese restaurant located just a few miles from there. It's one of the best restaurants in the entire country. If not that, then any number of other places.

I never found track food, or any type of catered food to be overwhelmingly compelling in the first place!

My typical day at Santa Anita back in the day was to come in with today's form and go over my handicapping again from the night before. When tomorrow's form would become available, I would bury myself in that between races.

Food? In-N-Out or maybe a cobb salad at the track.

I know I'm rambling, but I guess what I'm trying to say is that I wish they'd just stick to what works and provide a good experience for the majority of fans. This fancy ****, it just doesn't matter to people.
