RE: #Ulog 28 - Wednesday Walk - My First Horse Race
What a cool outing and congrats on that huge win :)\
I Have only been to a horse racing track once here and it was a nice day out, I was pretty conservative with betting and we ended up breaking even on our bets so that was a good result for me and I am sure a lot better than many do how else would those places make so much money
Thanks for joining Wednesday Walk :)
Yes, it was fascinating to see all those people huddled over their racing booklets (which cost $5 so there's a big profit for the track right there). I didn't get one because it wouldn't have meant a thing to me. But they look so serious, stay inside watching the TVs and don't care a thing about the racing, just the betting. It didn't look to me like the majority were having any fun at all.
$5 for the Facebook I bet it costs the less that $1 to print them so. Huge profit for sure that people happily pay, I have seen the crowds like that to me and it doesn’t look fun to me at all, they look so stressed and serious where is the fun in that
