Definitely no OTB's in Myrtle. I think having/building a track there, or just across the border in Brunswick County, NC, would absolutely kill. I did find a quarter horse track about 5 miles north of the SC/NC border about 5 years ago. Masqueraded as a riding school/boarding facitlity but they held races every other Saturday. While you couldn't "bet" the races, you could "lease" a horse for a race. They would auction off the lease prior to post time with highest bidder "owning" a horse for that race. Winning "owner" picked up the losers lease payments as their winnings. It was a lot of fun until the feds shut 'em down....

Good luck finding a place with TVG.....
Yeah, I guess the question will be "do you have satellite TV"? If I say TVG, I have a feeling I will get a big, HUH.....

I know there is a Hooters and a Bar/Resteraunt called Thoroughbreds. Guess I will start there.
