Harness Racing / Re: Is racing really dead
« Last post by dougie on Today at 10:38:26 AM »While "Fair" racing here in Maine is always popular, racing in Maine is in pretty bad shape. Before Scarbourgh closed, you could count the attendance at maybe 50 on a sunny summer day. At Monticello, the numbers are truly sad. Maybe a couple of dozen between the simulcast room and the makeshift mental seating they put out there. Young folks don't know and certainly don't care about harness racing. Casinos, Sports Betting, and Poker are now all the rage, When I play poker in Boston'd Encore Casino. the blackjack and roulette tables are packed with the under 30 crowd. The Horse Racing part of the Fan Duel room is with old farts like me. LOL!
