I would think that most people here probably became interested as kids. I remember my old man taking me to the track when I was a kid. He gave me $2 dollars a race. As I got older, I fell in love with the sport more and more. Now I watch racing all the time whether I am betting them or not. But for a first timer, going to the track and looking at the program can be a confusing moment. Without someone showing them what to look for, they might be missing out on a very exciting day.
