Couldn't agree more. It's so sad. I don't understand what's going on or their logic behind keeping everything closed the way it currently is. I am a young harness racing fan (extremely rare) and I have stopped going to the track entirely because of how poor the current layout is.
I got kicked out of the paddock during the T-bred meet for having an expired license. All I wanted to do was see the horses up close. Now they have a security guard preventing anyone from getting close to the finish line. I just don't understand it. There are very few young fans like me, and Hawthorne is doing everything they can to ruin my love for the sport.
