Mindless fluff piece, adding basically nothing to the discussion. The focus on this seems to be exclusively on harness tracks. As Cannon points out, left unsaid was the INCREASE in money gambled on the thoroughbreds at Penn National. Slots are not the golden egg for the tracks, but, if done correctly, the money is there to be made.

I can tell you this specific to Penn National, my wife used to work for them for a long time. All they care about is the bottom line. The more machines the better. And if they could, they would eliminate as many people off their payroll as possible. They would love it if they could put a nickle slot in everyones living room. On the casino side of their operation, they would eliminate table games if they could, and I wouldnt doubt if they feel the same about racing.
