I know it’s not your traditional casino but has anyone ever bet on a horse race? This is something that I have always wanted to do but I haven’t ever done it yet.

I have bet on horseraces but not very often.  I only bet when I actually go to the track and that only happens a couple of times per year.  I don’t know why I bother, either, since I never win on these.  It does add to the excitement of watching the race though so I’ll probably keep doing it.

I have never been to an actual horse race but a local bar I go to every now and then has “off track betting” and this is really fun, the place is full of TV’s to watch the races and you don’t have to bet a lot to have fun!

Our casino can an electronic horse track with little ponies lined up. It’s like a little railroad track or something and you bet on the horses as they whiz around a track. I’m sure it’s a novelty game at our casino, but it is fun.

The horses have a wonderful atmosphere if you actually manage to make it to the tracks. I’d recommend it to anyone who really likes the casino atmosphere as opposed to just gambling online.

I have always wanted to go and my Grandfather said he would take me, but it never happened. I still like to watch the races on the boob tube and sometimes a side bet comes from it but no I have never had the full experience just yet.

I adore the atmosphere at the big event races. It’s electric! The horses are just stunning and everyone is having so much fun you can’t help but get caught up in it all.

They just opened up a horse track by my house and I am going to go during the summer and see how I like it. I’m not that big into gambling but I do try to have fun with friends and I think this could be a great day trip.

Horse racing, now that is something that I have never done before. It sounds like a lot of fun but do you really win anything or is it pretty much for the love of it?

You know even though there’s a track about an hour from my house I have never been to the races. I have wanted to but could never work out scheduling conflicts with my friends who wanted to go. Maybe this year.
