lol yes but the place is over a 100 years old, like 1892 or 1894. theyve redone some of the inside of the grandstand this but only cuz theyve completely closed the clubhouse down other than the"horsemans lounge" which blows, and the gold cup room on the 3rd floor! the 3rd floor grandstand is nice for true handicappers due to the new handicapping center installed several years back. you can walk in and watch races from years back etc etc. believe me i hate having to be at hawthorne majority of the year, i wish sportsmans park the old sportsmans park was still going!
anyways kev balmoral and maywood are nothing to really go in your pants about visually. maywood however has done a ton of remodeling indoors and the clubhouse is nice now. balmorals out in crete which is south of here and since im not really a harness fan ive only drove out there a handful of times. its ok, id say id rate it better than tha wood

hahahha damn im gettin slammed by peole bout my clothes for wearin a shirt that costs like 80 bucks and kicks that go for round a buck 20. anyways kev yeah although im notta huge harness fan i prefer the mile tracks to the half miles like maywood and northfield, definite advantage for the inside especially if your drawn outside and have zero speed! harness racing has gone downhill here so much since 2000 when sportsmans was converted into a auto track and horse track. harness racing no longer existed there in the summer which used to draw huge crowds and at the end of the meet had the huge suer night every year. the purses now for harness here in chicago are nowhere near what they were in 2k and before! thats why alotta guys left or were absent for portions of the year like eric ledford, tony morgan, joe anderson, dave magee etc etc etc
