30-40 minutes minimum to place a bet, get a drink or get something to eat, inadequate restroom facilities, no available seating, etc.

They were either pathetically unprepared or (more likely) simply unwilling to spend the money to provide the services required to manage a crowd of that size - and judging from what I had heard about last year - it was the latter.


So this is one way to deal with it. I might consider going on a Sunday knowing that the crowd will be at least manageable.
if you would have only told them you were there to play the penny slots they would of taken great care of you
