Can You Hear Race
just out of curiosity. here in florida at both calder and gulfstream there are many areas of the track where you cannot hear the call of the race. there are no speakers placed. is it that way at your tracks?

If tracks didnt have dead areas can you imagine how hard it would be to lie to your girlfriend or family about where you were. Godbless the dead areas

at Calder the speaker system on the 4th floor has been dead since the meet started. Many people have complained to no avail.... they did, i think, put in a small speaker about 2 weeks ago. which is you listen real closely you can barely hear it.
i watch the races on the 4th floor outside balcony.... at 1 min to post I turn the TV up as loud as possible and listen to the TV sound while the race is running.

At Suffolk Downs you need to be in the right place in order to hear the race call. For me, the right visual place and audio place seem to be mutually exclusive so I go for the good view, use binoculars and watch the tote board for racing positions when I can't get a good view.

Exactly, my phone rings and I see it is my girlfriend, I run out the doors as quickly as I can to the place where I know there is no sound. Works good everytime and haven't been caught yet!

And ya know, even at tracks in the places where you can hear the call, it's often too garbled (cheap speakers?) to be understood, anyway.

I have asked her PLENTY of times to go to the track with me, the only times she will go is if I take her to dinner there, which I have no problem with but sometimes I just go to gamble. I like to gamble, she hates to gamble. She knows I go to the track a lot, but when she is working if she doesn't ask where I am why should I tell her that I am at the track?? If she asked, I would tell her I'm at the track, but she don't ask I don't tell!
I'm 21, anyone know where I can find a good looking women who likes to spend a day at the track and have a good time???

It's my work that I am hiding from. There's nothing worse than taking a work call between races thinking your safe and then up pops the "may I have your attention, we have a late scratch in the upcoming 5th race..." announcement. The call usually gets "mysteriously" dropped at that time.

or other times I was supposedly "working from home", and I get a work call. Its in between races so there is no sound and I start talking forgetting that I have the sound up very loud on the computer speakers. suddenly you can hear Trevor Denman "the horses, have now, reached the starting gate" damn!
