Didn't CD post that the people that came out for it's experimental Friday nights didn't push much through the windows those nights, were more of the party-drinking crowd? I'd imagine that's why they are trying to recoup money via admission.

That said, Twin Spires members, horseplayers, etc. need to get in free. I was shocked Keeneland went to $5 admission this fall for everyone.

Correct, most of the people that attend during night racing are not going for the same reason you and I are. That said, it is a fantastically fun night - just hope you don't like any horses that Calvin is on because they all bet on him if they do bet.
