Do you remember when Mountaineer had those, "Who Let The Slots out" commericals?

Was it around the same time as that "Who Let the Dogs Out" song?
I don't remember it. It must have been terrible...

I have no idea why ... but I like playing horses at Mountaineer ... its one of the few tracks where the announcers between races seem to know what they are talking about ... I always seem to do quite well there.

Yeah, I know - they cancel a bunch this time of year.
It's probably a good thing they were off for two months - it's not like they would have raced more than 8 times anyway in that time span...

That's definitely a big plus about Mountaineer - their simulcast show is easily the best one out there.

totally agree about the simulcast show, but the quality of the feed is pretty bad. have any of these tracks ever heard of HD. I know the Churchill Companies have HD.

Yeah the Churchill tracks look great (plus you get Jessica at Fair Grounds)
For some reason, it looks like Charles Town has a nice feed, like they might be HD now.
