I am sure that NYRA will be thrilled with this deal, can't see how they or the state would allow it, NY could have authorized slots at Belmont if they wanted too.
Fact is, few people anymore bet racing for companionship, and the old geezers who love OTB will soon be attending the great OTB in the sky.
The internet has changed everything...

Sadly the track does not make it welcoming anymore to attend. Parking fee, entrance fee, high food and beer/liquor prices. OTB is cheaper to go to or just stay at home and bet through NYRA, is what the ads say even at the track. Stinks the track itself and going to it is dying. I'm sure the casino loves this though.
My father used to go for years and get a Summer entry pass but they got rid of the senior discount and the Belmont/Saratoga pass keeps going up in price so he said, I'm done. Sad.
