Ok, I know this is pretty lame but I'm getting a little concerned about my part time job on the weekends at Balmoral Park. I had this little idea in WR's Rush outing thread, so I thought I'd put it here too on it's own. Not looking good for the slots being allowed at the tracks, so I'll do this to try and get a few people in. I've heard Maywood would be the first to close if things don't pick up soon.

If it were a nooner, I'd be in...gotta work though that evening.

:idea: An idea though....come on out to Balmoral Park in Crete after the game and bet on the trotters. Post time is 7:10pm. I can almost guarantee that Michael Oosting should win at least two of the races. Go as a group and I could get you guys on camera and you'll be broadcast to all the OTBs and even out to Vegas. Maybe I could convince the graphics person to put up a page that says "Balmoral Park welcomes CSFMB and the Fairies" after which Dominic Polito (the track announcer) could announce a special at the grill on burritos (unfortunately they don't make burritos...only quesedillas and tacos). I highly recommend the steak tacos there if you go. 8) Still waiting to see JORR there.

Anyway, GO RUSH! Yay Bob McMillen! And then come to Balmoral and "Have Fun and Win Money!" (See what I did there?)

Sorry, I'm a subscriber to the "Win Fun, Have Money" way of life so that mindset tends to not mesh with gambling.

Not that I am going back Crete ( Going back Crete, to Crete, crete,...I don't think so), but let me suggest when promoting something, state specifics, time, places, cost, "specials" etc.

Just a suggestion for everyone

I put post time is 7:10pm. It's in Crete. Balmoral Park. Not a specific event per se.

Just sayin' to come out some time. I'm gettin' worried. The industry as a whole is dieing. Need asses in the seats, er uh....faces at the window.

and Frank, I make long hauls all the time to most of the events, so....meh.
