Today the OTBs in PHX have 18 tracks to bet, last one being Los Al
I used to work for TuP a long while ago, we used to fight cell phones being brought into the place.

I used to work at McDuffy's and we always charged the patrons who did not buy or drink and only bet. I can see it from the business aspect but it was their choice to install an OTB. I think its a bad business decision.

I worked there about 15 months from 93-94, they started it my last 4 months or so.

Yes I know the owners and where happy they cashed out at the height and then opened the chandler place.
