yeah, that's maybe the whole idea behind expanding the breeders cup.

perhaps by dumbifying the event it will appeal to more NASCAR types of fans?

in retrospect, the ladies day idea is actually quite brilliant, as it will most likely get a long of drunk necks tuned in on friday!

if the bc people really wanted to get it together, they should tie in tshirts with ladies day. the ratings would soar through the roof!

Sportsman's Park tried to tie horse racing in with NASCAR
hopefully the rest of the industry doesn't have the same result

as far as drunk necks.. the OTB I use moved into a bar. I imagine the bar thought that gambling = drinking.

The bar is kicking the OTB out after the Ky Derby this year

at least that is what I hear
