I put Detroit in the same category as Baltimore.

Camden isn't so bad, though that's mostly because there's nobody there anymore. Newark is pretty rough.

Detroit is half vacant. It is way worse than Baltimore.

Taking the race away wouldn't be right, too much tradition, although I will admit that Pimlico doesn't really strike attention on a national media scale, general people heard of churchill and belmont, but Pimlico? Doesn't sound too appealing, so I understand where the guy who made this thread is coming from, I don't think they will or should take it away, though.

As was so aptly pointed out, they can take the race away, but it won't be called the "Preakness."

Yes.

As are parts of Philadelphia, Chicago, St Louis, New Orleans, Los Angeles... etc.

I love Baltimore. There, I said it.

The original poster has clearly never been to Hollywood Park or Churchill either then. Wander a few blocks off the premises on a non-Derby day at CD and see where that gets you.

Anyone landing at BWI must stop at G&M restaurant. 5 minutes from the airport and the best double crabcake platter you will get in the country dollar for dollar.
