I heard they were talking about 2 weeks ago and people at the OTB were ready for something to happen, then nothing. It's really hammered the service employees and business is off 60-70%. Feel bad for the bartenders, waitstaff and tellers. They have cut back hours and laid off some tellers. Most bartenders and waitstaff are making 50% less than the did before 12/9/2014. They ran into that right before Christmas also, which is especially nasty. To me, they're the losers in this.
The winner is probably TVG, which many in Philly can use because of Harrah's, PAbets. Although some people won't use an ADW, guess the are off the grid.

Nevada and NYRA just reached a deal....still dark with 7 Monarch tracks. Can't imagine no wagering on Gulfstream here this weekend!

Very informative interview today with Steve and Scott Daruty. After listening to him speak several times now, I really get a feeling that he is doing the best he can to resolve this. To see that PNG is the obstacle is no surprise to me.
I could say a lot more on that, but won't. However, I will say that nobody has taken more from horse racing and given less back. Remember it's Penn National Gaming, not Penn National Racing.

Nevada signal back tomorrow while they still work on the "deal." Way too much handle at Santa Anita to forego dark days.
