was down there this past weekend scavs as we ran a filly with your boy mena on that ran 3rd sunday. the recieving barn was in horrible shape as the washracks were frozen and it was flooded. theres a theatre and alotta places to eat around the track like fuddruckers and some hotels right there but if youre lookin for a place to stay i highly reccomend the drawbridge which is a few miles from the track

There are about 3 hotels right on Turfway road even, walking distance to the track.

Fudrucker's is ok, but i recommend Rafferty's

lol you make it sound like a strip club

Go to skyline chili before you hit up turfway. It'll help you communicate with the locals.

Isn't that where you can get a 5-way? I had one once. Great!!

Not so. When in Cincy (or Florence or Erlanger) you have to go to Skyline or Gold Star Chili.

Scav-

You can save yourself some driving time. Indiana Downs is open for simulcasting. Its on I-74 in Shelbyville. Its a lot closer to Indy than Cincy.

I love Skyline Chili!!! It's definitely a Cincy tradition.

Lots of places to eat up the hill -- left outta Turfway and right at Famous Dave's BBQ -- Houston Road. Up the hill not even a mile there is Logans Roadhouse (better food than Rafferty's -- although Rafferty's is good despite the "sticky" bar), a new restaurant named Cheddar's, and the ultimate in fine dining and conservative waitress attire:

Hoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooters!

Hooters is kinda on the skids in most places but this particular venue has pretty decent looking babes and they are Kentucky friendly.

I should be there on Saturday if they run. Just look for the guy in the flak jacket and Kevlar helmet at the rail. Those chunks of frozen poly are lethal!
