![]() there was a $430+ winner at Hollywood Park in the early 90's! I know because i wasnt legal to bet to my mom went to the window and disregarded my $2wps and only bought a showticket on the horse which paid $19. I was livid! Horse might have been named Family Fling.

![]() I was there when it opened in '89. Spent many a day watching March Madness, NBA playoffs, NFL etc. They even bought Wrestlemania on PPV in '90 that was broadcast from the Pontiac Silverdome. Luckily I graduated before they installed the OTB. Not to say that Phx Greyhound Park didn't have some of my business. A kid in the dorm went every night and each race he played a 1,2,8 exacta box. No matter what! There was a 2 week stretch where he had an uncanny run. Thanks for taking me back to a terrific time!
