Yeah, but that's the home track's fault for not having dime supers.

There isn't much to base an argument one way or another on, but I feel like people are just looking at the decreased ticket prices and saying it hurts handle, and not factoring in new players who wouldn't have played the super AT ALL were it not available for $.10.
