On a similar note of abundance, I can note a few of quality from personal attendance.
There's one by the Hartford CT airport that is almost like a sports theater. Institutional food quality though.
I used to love an OTB in Aurora IL.......Chicago southwest suburbs "sticks." If felt more like a bar than an OTB, in a good way.
Downtown Indianapolis IN. Nice lounge chairs like living room furniture
Ruidoso Downs in New Mexico. I guess the facility isn't all that great, but the drive up from either direction is beautiful.....as is the overall setting. Plus full Native American casinos a stone's throw away.
Pleasanton CA. I've stopped in a few times each month for going on 8 years now. One of the things that amazes me is that the supporting personnel has had little if any turnover in that time. Absolutely amazing in the Bay Area. The same ticket sellers, program sellers, bartender, custodian and food providers. It's really a nice friendly atmosphere normally with exactly enough seats on Saturdays and Sundays. Regular attendees all know each other and at minimum recognize with a nod. Food quality is good to great, especially when the grill is fired up on the outside patio on special days. And, the NFL Sunday Ticket on personal TV's available during football season. I really love the place, and it is my fave of my all my OTB experiences.
