When Hawthorne inevitably closes...
« on: April 19, 2025, 12:29:19 PM »
Do we think Fairmont will purchase and continue to operate some/all of Hawthorne's 12 OTBs?

Fairmont already owns 3 OTBs in southern IL

When Arlington was shut down, Hawthorne bought their OTBs, keeping the one in my hometown open. It would be a shame if all of them closed this time around.

probably not

its FanDuel-they want bettors using the FD racing app so i dont see them wanting any OTBs other than to sell them

Brick and mortar OTBs are almost obsolete.

Is there anywhere to bet the Kentucky derby in Illinois this year?  Hawthorne not taking action on Churchill.

The two near me in Illinois always have full parking lots.

I was told by Oakbrook OTB manager customers can bet on Android using Expressbet and watch Fanduel feed.

  • Albatross77: I saw Bukowski puking by the toilet. I asked about his gibberish posts. Buk slurred something about Zack shitting in his litter box and eating his sardines. And then he passed out again.I guess that was the whole kerfuffle.
