I'm roughly a 10-minute drive away from Hollywood Park and go their often during their LIVE meet (I go to DM/SA/LA a combined 2-3 times a year for LIVE racing). A lot of people diss Hollywood (for reasons I'll never understand), but nothing beats the experience of a day of racing at the track of the Lakes, Flowers, Grace the Goose Girl, Naomi the Bartender and Fat Tony.
When the wrecking ball eventually levels my local track. I won't be attending LIVE racing at ANY venue - it will be 100% ADW at that point.
