There is a place in Manhattan called the Playwright. I'm sure the NY contingent knows about it. Its not a bad place. But really...its kind of gross. Most OTB's seem seedy. Im sure there are exceptions but most I have encountered are disgusting looking places.
The Playwright....Gross?!?!.....

Although, I do also enjoy Clancy's when in Saratoga

The more I think about it...

trying to get women to the track could be the final nail in the coffin for this sport.

When I watch Hollywood Friday Night Racing brought to you by TVG's Daily Double Whorefest Show... I realize that bringing young sluts to the track can only result in unwanted pregnancies and potential marriages which will more than likely take real gamblers (men) away from the game.

Now that they have the added responsibility of child support they won't have the disposable income to bet. All the $2 broads in the world couldn't make up for losing a whale.

I used to love going to the OTB in high school. Eventhough I was MAYBE one of 3 girls.. and the other 2 girls were working as tellers. But then again I've never felt uncomfortable being the only girl in a group of hundreds of old men.

its pointless to argue that women even bet nearly the amount men bet, cause its simply not true.

If an man and a woman both had the same amount of disposible income, who do you think would be more likely to spend it on gambling. Men are the easy 1-20 favorites there.

its it worth spending lots in marketing to get young women involved? or would it be more worth while to spend that money getting young men involved?

thats an easy answer for me if I'm a marketing director. Though horse racing doesnt seem to market to ANYONE, which is the main problem.
