1/2 Decade: still no OTB's in New Jersey
The plan is laid out in off-track wagering legislation passed in 2001
that allows for 15 facilities to be built throughout the state. Though none is open yet, three have been approved: in Vineland, Woodbridge and Toms River. While some towns welcome the prospect of economic growth  and a new form of entertainment, residents in other towns -- including Woodbridge -- are nervous about the facility and its effect on their township's reputation.

Yeah like Woodbridge should worry about its reputation. Wasn't Jim McGreevy the mayor of that town?

Still, maybe they'll do it right in Jersey with all the time they're taking. The Turf Club in downtown Philly, for example, doesn't have much atmosphere. The food is overpriced and comes in increasingly smaller portions, and the service is sometimes surly. But who am I kidding -- I don't really go there to eat, anyway.
