Churchill 10$ Admission

[ghartman02]

I have to admit when I saw that charge last year, it angered me (they did $10 the first night, and $6 for the other 2). However, if you had a TSC card it was still $1. I can complain so much about Churchill because they treat the average bettor terribly, and they don't ever seemed concerned about that. Having said that, the night racing last spring was electric. They created a very exciting, and wonderful experience. Granted it wasn't all about the racing, but it was a nice balance. Having travelled throughout the country, it was one of the most unique experiences I've had at a race track. It was a nightclub race track. Whether that can be sustained, I'm not sure (If they get a rainy night I think that won't help). They may have hit on something though. It wasn't a night for the diehard bettors, it was a night for newbies. As a veteran though, I loved the enthusiasm and Churchill did an outstanding job creating that night. It reminded me of what they created in the infield for the Derby, The Infield Club was different, interesting, and a good experience.
